The Maniac by Benjamin Labatut. Also, his first book „When we cease to understand the world“

Does anyone have a reference on how to build in quantity discounts into Discrete Choice Experiments? The idea is that prices react dynamically to the quantity bought (first product 2,50, every other 2 for example).

Thank you for the idea! I was so far not super impressed with the results but maybe it‘s me that is the issue ;)
