The End of the Fixed Price
Personal Data, Hidden Prices, and the New Market of OneBy Nero Quist
Length8h 31m
About this audiobook
The price tag used to describe the product. Now it may be describing you.
Two customers can look at the same item and encounter different offers. A price may reflect demand and supply, but also location, browsing behaviour, loyalty, urgency, and predictions about what a buyer will accept.
In The End of the Fixed Price, Nero Quist investigates the shift from publicly posted prices to prices calculated for a moment, a profile, and potentially an individual.
From flights and tickets to groceries, delivery apps, and subscriptions, this audiobook reveals how dynamic pricing, targeted discounts, and personal data are creating a market that is harder to observe, compare, and contest.
Balanced, deeply researched, and compelling, it explains when personalised pricing may improve access and efficiency, when it becomes opaque or unfair, and what consumers lose when there is no longer one visible price for everyone.
In the new market of one, the product is not the only thing being priced.
