In economics, a price book is a book in which the normal prices of an item are listed for all suppliers. This allows one to determine the lowest price possible.

If a group of suppliers adhere to a particular price book, in other words, they set the prices of the price book artificially higher than the market clearing price, then they are "fixing the price" of that item. This is illegal in most countries and is often found in oligopolies (industries with a few competitors (2-8), but not enough to make it a perfect market).

Q. the blue book price of a car i want to buy is $6200 and the seller is willing to sale it for $5000. based on what he says, the car is in very good condition and well maintained and clean title. assuming this is true, am i getting a good deal or simply paying what the car is really worth?

A. Dealers use Black Book, consumers use Blue Book, and lenders use NADA. More important than a book value is the market value. Check autotrader and cars.com to see what similar cars are selling for. Getting a car for $1200 under blue book retail dosn't mean squat if the same car is available everywhere for $2000 under.

Where do I get the best price for an old book?
Q. I can't believe I found this book, first printing, fantastic condition, AND the author signed it! I checked out the website, www.abebooks.com, and there are 2 of the same priced at almost $1,000 each (with no signature). I'd love to keep this book but really feel it may be better off with someone who would take care of it, and I could really use the cash anyway. I'll take it around to all the antique stores, bookstores, museum, universities, etc., but is there someplace else I should be looking to get the best price?

A. Abe's is good. You can try ebay but it may be out of the median range of ebayers income.

The book will fly off the shelves, no doubt, with price wars underway, with Amazon and Barnes & Noble already slashing the $28.95 list price to $15.63. If you wait long enough to buy it used it'll be cheaper than a cat.
