They have to sell stuff at what ever they are buying them for, so therefore they have to sell stuff according to what the market is doing.

I hope that made sense I suck at explaining things.

its because they are always getting new inventory and running out of old. so they are continuously changing prices to account for the inventory.

One of the core fundamentals of capitalism: supply vs. demand.
