Fixed price information


A fixed price is a price set for a good or a service that is not subject to bargaining. The price may be fixed because the seller has set it, or because the price is regulated by the authorities under price controls.

Bargaining is very common in many parts of the world, but not in most retail stores in Europe, North America, and Japan. Elsewhere, fixed prices tend to be an exception from the norm.
