Question 2

Gardner-Denver is the United States' largest manufacturer of ratchet wrenches. Rogers, a former Gardner-Denver employee, formed D.E. Rogers and began selling ratchet wrench parts. From 1964 to 1971, the two competed, with Rogers charging prices 30 percent below Gardner-Denver's. In August 1971, Gardner-Denver began a dual price system: Blue list - discounts for quantities of five or more (blue list parts were largely Rogers' parts); white list - non-Rogers' parts. The blue list was given only to Gardner-Denver sales reps. A price war followed with Rogers filing an antitrust suit. Are there any antitrust violations?

Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

The court found no violation and that the effect of the price lists was to encourage competition. See D.E. Rogers Associates, Inc. v. Gardner-Denver, Co., 718 F.2d 1431 (6th Cir. 1983).
