In this paper we are focusing on the possibility that information about end users' willingness to pay for data transfer in the end-to-end manner is propagated through the communication network to achieve certain level of QoS. We propose a scheme where price information is propagated along the network path, where each network resource subtracts its share of value from packet's price. The proposed scheme establishes a direct relationship between expressed willingness to pay and gained QoS level. The scheme could be further developed and implemented with compliancy to QoS standards, like Differentiated and Integrated Services.
