In the 1930s, the price of the Monopoly game varied, but it typically sold for around $2 to $3 when it was first introduced in 1935. This price was considered quite affordable during the Great Depression, making it an appealing option for families looking for affordable entertainment. Over the years, the game's popularity led to various editions and price adjustments, but the original price reflected its accessibility to the average household at the time.
Certain types of monopolies exist and are allowed in a free market system. Here are some examples: * When a patent is granted to, as example, a drug company, for a new drug, the company has sole rights to the manufacture of the drug for 17 years. Thus this company has a legal and natural monopoly; * A key resource is owned by a single company. A clear instance of this is found by examining the De Beers company. De beers owns over 80% of the world's diamond mines and production. This is a rare form of monopoly however; and * A natural monopoly begins when a single company can supply an entire market at a lower cost than can two or more other companies. Common examples of this are utility companies. It should be noted however, that in these cases, a regulatory body must give the utility permission to raise prices.
Petrol Bunks are best example for perfect competition.The reason is all sellers sell same product with same price .The product differences if any is also same (like ordinary petrol /diesel & extra premium petrol /Diesel) Stock market also exhibits perfect competition. In oligopoly market there are different sellers with product differential being wide in terms of technology & price. E.G, Mosquito repellents ,where cotton nets with repellent coating, coils, electronic repellents, repellent frequency sound wave repellents are seen in markets .Buyers who are rich will buy costly repellents & others will buy low priced items. Monopoly market represent single seller & many buyers. LIC India enjoyed for many years monopoly in Life Insurance market. Railways in India is monopoly controlled by Central Government Railway Ministry . similarly petroleum product distribution is dealt by Petroleum ministry. Oil & Natural Gas Commission is having monopoly. Any producer with break through technology offers a product or service having no competitors enjoys monopoly. For sometime Maruti Udyog Ltd enjoyed monopoly over their spare parts.

In the early years from 1908 until the early 20s some people felt they had a monopoly as they were selling cars as fast as they could build them. Nothing ever became of it.

Yes, oil is a natural resource that is formed from organic matter such as dead plants and animals over millions of years. It is extracted from beneath the Earth's surface and is used as a source of energy and as a raw material in various industries.
Coal, petroleum and natural gas took millions of years to form. Which is why they are classed as non-renewable resources.
Anyone old enough to understand the concept of strategy and basic arithmetic can play monopoly. I would say about 7 years and up, maybe younger.
