While most Magic product must be sold at or below MSRP per the merchant agreement with Wizards of the Coast, the FTV sets appear to be exempt from those rules (as pointed out by another member of this site). They seem to be a sort of bonus for the Wizards Play Network (WPN) member stores, so what they sell for really is up to the ethical standards of each merchant, and the rules of supply and demand.
It appears to be a chance for the local game stores (LGSs) to pocket a little extra dough as a "thank you" for being part of the WPN, or (in the case of stores selling it for MSRP) a way for the stores to endear themselves to their local players. I know I'll make sure more of my Magic dollars go to my LGS this next year--I want to keep them in business, since they gave me such a great deal.
