UNDERSOLD Meaning and Definition

1. Undersold is a verb that refers to the act of selling something at a price lower than its actual value or market price. It describes the situation where a product or service is offered for a lower price than what is considered reasonable or expected in the market.

   When a seller undersells, they typically set a price that is below their competitors' prices or the prevailing market rate. This action is often strategically used as a marketing or promotional tactic to attract customers by offering them a better deal or value proposition. By intentionally lowering the price, the seller aims to create a competitive advantage, stimulate demand, and potentially increase sales volume.

   Underselling can have both positive and negative implications. From a consumer's perspective, they can benefit from lower prices, cost savings, or increased affordability. However, from a seller's standpoint, underselling may lead to reduced profit margins or even losses in some cases. Furthermore, underselling may devalue the product or service, signaling to customers that it is of lower quality or lacking compared to other offerings in the market.

   Overall, underselling is an action that deviates from the standard pricing practices, often employed to gain a competitive edge by offering customers a product or service at a lower price point.

Etymology of UNDERSOLD

The verb "undersold" is derived from the combination of the prefix "under-" and the verb "sell".

The prefix "under-" is commonly used in English to indicate a lack, insufficiency, or lesser degree. It suggests "below" or "not reaching the expected level or standard" in different contexts.

The verb "sell" originates from the Old English word "sellan", meaning "to give, deliver, communicate, give up" or "to deliver into another's power". Over time, it specifically took on the meaning of a commercial transaction, where someone exchanges goods or services for money.

Combining these two elements, "undersold" implies the act of selling something at a lower price or with greater value than a competitor or market standard.
