    I've been told to match a competitor's price at an upcoming event, in order to maintain "tranquility" among the vendors. I have a contract to sell our products at a local RV show and the promoter is insisting on this at the request of my competitor. Can she do this? Is it legal? Isn't she being asked to effect a price manipulation? I admit that my price is always lower than the complainer but I make it up in volume... I know someone out there knows more about this than I do. any advice appreciated.
