8. Everybody’s Business Many Retailers use a psychological pricing strategy known as odd pricing, whereby prices are set to end in odd numbers such as $.79, $2.47, or $9.95. Theoretically, customers perceive odd prices as being substantially below even prices, and therefore a bargain. For example, $299.95 is “perceived” as being much lower than $300.00. Retailers, to psychologically project a prestigious image for their products, use even pricing such as $10.00 or $50.00.
