This happens every day... it's called multimarket price descrimination.
It's illigal to set different prices for different groups, but on items such as cars - what do you think the dealer is realy saying when he says:
"So what do you do for a living?"
"What car are you currently driving?"
or even the more direct question:
"What are you looking to spend?"
A car dealer will pick a price depending on how you answer these questions.
It's not illigal, it's just charging ppl the maximum of what they're willing to pay for an item. (Kind of like an auction)
