Abstract

Research has demonstrated that people often demand more money to sell a product after they own it relative to what they would offer to pay for the product before they own it. This phenomenon has been termed the endowment effect. Prior studies, however, have not investigated whether this phenomenon is affected by temporal distance. This research demonstrates how temporal distance affects buyers' willingness to pay and sellers' willingness to accept.
