The willingness-to-accept/willingness-to-pay disparity in repeated markets: loss aversion or ‘bad-deal’ aversion?

Abstract: Several experimental studies have reported that an otherwise robust regularity -the disparity between Willingness-To-Accept and Willingness-To-Pay -tends to be greatly reduced in repeated markets, posing a serious challenge to existing referencedependent and reference-independent models alike. This paper offers a new account of the evidence, based on the assumptions that individuals are affected by good and bad deals relative to the expected transaction price (price sensitivity), with bad deals having a larger… Show more

“…The reason is that the non-realised price seems an obvious candidate to compare the current price to. 3 While this formulation looks similar to the model of "bad-deal aversion" by Isoni (2011), and indeed shares some of the ideas expressed therein, the interpretation of the reference point is different. Unlike Isoni, my specification assumes that the reference price is derived directly from the distribution of possible prices in the market, whereas he defines the reference price as the price consumers expect to trade at and explicitly rules out the case that it is obtained by calculating the average of the price distribution (Isoni, 2011, fn.…”

“…A teoria econômica sugere que os dois valores tendem a ser iguais (KRUTILLA, 1967;RAN-DALL;STOLL, 1980;HOEHN;RANDALL, 1987;HANEMANN, 1991;MITCHELL, 1993;PLOTT;ZEILER, 2005;ISONI, 2011;LOUVIERE, 2011;HAUSMAN, 2012;CARSON, 2012;SANTANA, 2015). Por outro lado, a experiência prática desenvolvida em vários trabalhos gerou resultados diferentes.…”

“…Putler (1992) claims that the reference price effects can be empirically tested, which was achieved in a study using weekly retail egg sales data from Southern California. Isoni (2011) also suggests that the effects of best or worst deal on purchasing decisions appear intuitively appealing because of their resemblance to the experience of everyday transactions. For example, the feeling of disappointment at knowing that a product we just bought can be found for a cheaper price is a common experience (Isoni, 2011).…”

For example, the feeling of disappointment at knowing that a product we just bought can be found for a cheaper price is a common experience (Isoni, 2011). Nevertheless, Day et al (2012) suggest that the presence of the precedent-dependent ordering effects should be addressed since it is closely related to the issue of strategic misrepresentation of preferences in which a respondent might provide untruthful answers so as to manipulate the survey outcome to his/her benefit.…”
