If you go to some of these stone retailers in Japan or on their online internet stores you can look at hundreds of stones, and you know that they most likely have hundreds if not thousands more in storage. Most of the the stones look pretty much the same, but some cost 4 or 5 time more. Why?

Well, you are running the exact same business, so may be you could start by explaining your pricing structure.
Why are you charging for some stones many times what you are charging for other stones?

It seems to me that asking people to speculate on why somebody does something, while not explaining why are you doing that thing is rather peculiar.

Or am I missing something here and your question is not really a question?
