I cant find an explanation of

Gross price and Net Price

[edit] Marxist/Marxian influence

The article claims, in regard to marginal benefit determining price, that: "That debate is no longer useful in talking about price."

It is true that marginal benefit is no longer seen as the sole driver of price; however, it is seen as driving the demand side of the supply-demand curves, the equilibrium of which determines price. I'll correct this if no objections are raised. El T 15:10, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

The comments on Marxian theories end with the sentence : 'Marxian theory has several flaws and has failed in practice.'. I don't understand what 'failed in practice' means here, and it would be more helpful to state what the flaws are. So I'm editing the sentence accordingly. Marinheiro 10:03, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What are Price Points ?

I think 'price points' is an important concept and it does not mean exactly the price of the product. Isn't it something to do with popular prices that make people more likely to splash the cash? 88.109.152.209 23:13, 6 January 2007 (UTC) I think this line "The price of an item is also called the price point" is not as clear as it could be. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.109.152.209 (talk • contribs) 23:18, 6 January 2007

[edit] Citations?

"Though this view is accepted by almost every economist, and it constitutes the core of mainstream economics, it has recently been challenged seriously."

I think it would help if people could back up somewhat outrageous claims like these with citations. If the challenge is really so serious, I ought to update my teaching material. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.146.129.166 (talk • contribs) 09:34, 6 August 2007
