Answer: anchor
Explanation: Anchoring as a cognitive bias describes the tendency for people to rely heavily on the first piece of information offered them during the decision making process. An anchor is the first piece of information offered to the consumer; the first price offered in negotiated pricing. An anchor sets a psychological benchmark that all other prices will be compared against. It is usually good practice to always display highest price first, so even when discounts are given there's relatively reasonable profits.
