Trivia Question: Opposite condition of monopoly - 03/21/00 01:18 PM
A few years ago, I ran across an interesting word in the Wall Street Journal. The article was about postal box manufacturers of which there are a few and the customers of which there is one, the US Post Office.
We all know that a market with many buyers and one seller is a monopoly. With a limited number of sellers, it is an oligopoly.
What is the term for a market that only has many sellers, but only a single buyer?
If nobody gets it, I will post the answer in a few days.
