      1. Price skimming: entering a market with a high price to attract early adopters and recap high developments costs. e.g. designer clothes, PlayStation, ipad etc.
        1. Advantages: - high prices = 'must have'.. - can recover higher research and development costs... - early adopters' usually but to be trendsetters
          1. Disadvantages: -cutting prices at a later stage can damage image - 'Ripped off?'
          2. Penetration pricing: below market pricing to establish product in competitive market

              2. Predator pricing - a firm sets low prices to driver other firms out of the market. e.g. cut price airline firms have led to smaller firms closing down.
