ROBINSON-PATMAN ACT
Robinson-Patman Act is a federal law passed in 1936 to outlaw price discrimination. This is an amendment to the 1914 Clayton Antitrust Act and is supposed to prevent "unfair" competition. This act requires a business to sell its products at the same price regardless of who the buyer is and was intended to prevent large-volume buyers from gaining an advantage over small-volume buyers. The act only applies to sales of tangible goods that are completed within a reasonably close timeframe and where the goods sold are similar in quality.
