Yes, and? If they list the prices on their sites - then this are the prices which I'm interesting. If I'll go to an anticariat, there I may also get discounts on the prices on the labels. If you buy a used car, gosh, the seller will think, that you're not right in brain, if you won't to try to haggle. Go to a stamp or coin auctions - there are never paid the prices given in the catalogue.
Such a list is good for orientation. If one has a 100% superoriented, crusted specimen, one will tend to ask or to pay higher prices than the average, if one has a 3 pounder, one will ask less and so on. The best clue for that the time I spent in compiling the lists was not wasted was, that the trade offers I got or I made, when I was the little Martin, even more unknown as now, fitted exactly to the given average price from my list and all parnters were content. Miau, says my cat.
