Lots of places do price discrimination, but there's an honest way and a dishonest way to do it. Honest way: "Here's a base price for the product; here are some extras (even if Veblen) that you can also get by giving us more money". Lots of video games do this (buy the presale premium edition, get some merch); streaming sites also do this (see Netflix's pricing tiers). Dishonest way: "Here's your price." (Unsaid: it's different than Chad's price, but there is no way to know what factors make that distinction).
