Abstract
⺠We endogenize the trading mechanism selection with risk-averse buyers. ⺠Fixed pricing is the only mechanism where buyers know how much to pay in advance. ⺠Remaining mechanism (auctions, bargaining, etc.) expose buyers to the “price risk”. ⺠In the unique symmetric equilibrium all sellers trade via fixed pricing.
