Amazon loses bid to dismiss consumers' price-fixing lawsuit in US ... - Reuters

Amazon.com must face a consumer class-action lawsuit in Seattle federal court alleging a price-fixing scheme that has artificially inflated prices for goods on its platform. The ruling allows the plaintiffs, residents of California and Maryland, to proceed with their claims challenging Amazon's pricing policies. The lawsuit accuses Amazon of violating consumer protection laws and antitrust provisions. The ruling comes as the U.S. Federal Trade Commission considers a lawsuit against Amazon. Amazon's attorneys argued that consumers lacked power to sue over the company's agreements with suppliers, but the judge ruled that the consumers' claims have merit.
