ABSTRACT
In this note we deal with inventory games as defined in Meca et al. (Math. Methods Oper. Res. 57:483-491, 2003). In that context we introduce the property of immunity to coalitional manipulation, and demonstrate that the SOC-rule (share the ordering cost) is the unique allocation rule for inventory games which satisfies this property.
