Technically yes. You and I in this case are competitors who have made an agreement to fix the price of the item. It would be like GM and Ford agreeing amongst themselves that they will only pay up to a certain price for assembly equipment and sharing in the savings when one of them hammers a supplier for favorable purchasing terms. Or the real life example from when the baseball owners were found to have conspired to keep free agent salaries down back in the mid-'80s. While this wasn't a Sherman Act violation because of baseball's antitrust exemption, it did violate the collective bargaining agreement.
