Figures 3.2 and 3.3 show the distribution of mean transaction prices across the classes in the first and second round of Experiment 3. (Many classes reported only the round 2 results and not the round 1 results. Thus we have many more observations for round 2 than for round 1.

The frequency distributions of transactions prices over the entire population of students taking the course is shown in Figure 3.4 for rounds 1 and 2. Prices seem to be converging quite well toward the equilibrium range, with some persistent trading at $20, which is slightly less than the equilibrium price.
