Show me this law.
I have seen lower prices at places other than Amazon.
Bull excrement. A retail store can usually sell an item at any price they choose.
So yes they can. The federal government cannot tell a company that they have to price over another company.
Now yes, there are some contracts between the suppliers and the merchants that can say you can't price your product lower at another company. But that is not a US contract law.
Probably why most prices are similar between the biggies.
Let's see I was looking at a GE under cabinet light the other day.
Price at Amazon $25.15. Price at Walmart $25.15.
Probably in both contracts that they must not price lower elsewhere.
