Definitions for: price fixing
price fixing

illegal effort by competing businesses to maintain a uniform price, such as the commission rate on the sale of real estate.

Example: Real estate brokerage commissions are negotiable. Many years ago a real estate board adopted a standard commission rate for all its members but dropped that requirement because it was ruled illegal price fixing.
