The Verizon Factor: Assume that if a user walks into a store he has an equally likely chance of buying the HTC One and Galaxy S3 if both are present. If neither is present give half the missing sales to the other. Assume Verizon, ATT, Sprint and T-Mobile have 40%, 34%, 14% and 10% of the US market respectively. Observe that HTC One is not available at Verizon. Now in our admittedly simplified marketplace we find the HTC phone is outsold by a 2 to 1 margin.
