Refusing  to deal describes a situation in which one firm refuses to sell to another firm, either because it is willing to sell only at a price that is considered too high (or non financial rational for the shareholders of the buying firm) , or is willing to sell only under conditions that are deemed unacceptable (i.e.: create monopolies or limited access to the market for big portion of the population or due to other regulation issues, etc...)
