Abstract
Two large samples of prices indicate that odd prices (i.e., prices just below a round number, for example €1495 vs. €1500) are used in the pricing of luxury products. An analysis of price endings suggests that luxury brand managers rely less on the drop-off mechanism than on the meaning mechanism, both of which have been used to show that odd prices influence consumers in the Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industry. Building on the odd-ending price justification effect, a conjoint analysis, indicating that a large proportion of luxury consumers prefer odd prices, supports the likely role of a guilt-relief mechanism in the pricing of luxury products.
