Resumen:
We examine the problem of endogenous entry in a single-unit auction when the seller'swelfare depends positively on the utility of a subset of potential bidders. We show that, unlessthe seller values those bidders' welfare more than her own "private" utility, a nondiscriminatoryauction is optimal.
