What can an MSA member say because of the Antitrust Policy?
All MSA members should review the Antitrust Policy and think about how the rules apply to their typical interactions at MSA meetings. Some types of “don’ts” are easy to spot: “I think we should all agree to sell beanbag dolls at the suggested retail price and not charge a premium” is an obvious example of price fixing. “If we all stay away from that vendor this year, maybe he’ll get the idea that his prices are too high,” is another fairly obvious example. The only way to make sure that you are not violating antitrust laws with your activity, however, is to give some careful thought to the rules and how they could apply to you.
