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