Dude. If you have any impact on pricing, you need to revisit your company’s pricing training or talk to a lawyer.

You could realistically end up in jail.

At least read the Sherman antitrust act.

This is what we find in the Sherman act link you supplied:

A Section 1 violation has three elements:

(1) an agreement;
(2) which unreasonably restrains competition; and
(3) which affects interstate commerce.

(emphasis mine)

People go to jail under Sherman without a written agreement.

Don’t go to jail for your boss’s bonus.
