Sometimes they do, but it's always suggested retail price (usually
highest price),  and often times there are advertise price minimums to
keep the competition from cannibalizing all the profits. In the end
most everything is negotiable...and would you like fries with that?

Furniture is more like gasoline, though the same physical item. The
market bears different prices in different areas. There are discounts
when sold bulk, and many additives (e.g. cloth color, backplate,
desks, footrests) that can vastly add to the total value to both the
customer and the person selling.
