D Correct answer
Explanation

Price discrimination requires market power (monopoly), ability to segment consumers, and prevent arbitrage. A monopolist can discriminate across any number of buyer groups - two, three, four, or several. The question asks for the most general correct statement. 'Several buyers' (option D) encompasses all specific numbers and is therefore the correct choice.
