[Avodah] ona'ah and on-line discounters

[David Riceman]

Books, and many other commodities, now have a "label" price and a "street" 
price which are different, due to the common presence of discounters.  What 
does that due to the din of ona'ah? It would be perverse to say that every 
bookseller who prints a price on his book is guilty of ona'ah.  On the other 
hand, it seems invariably true that a person who looks hard can find a new 
copy for less than the cover price.
