Well, they are pulled from TCGplayer which pulls pricing from online store actually selling the cards. As a result they are a benchmark of the average prices of what you can normally find the car for sale for online. They aren't a price guide. With all averages, some prices are skewed a bit due to online retailers being sold out of certain cards or dumping stock.

Hi
As Apparatus very well said, prices are fetched from tcgplayer.com. That website has listings for many stores who sell a card. As an example, here is the page for Baneslayer Angel: http://store.tcgplayer.com/product.aspx er=DECKBOX.
On deckbox, on a cards' page (like Baneslayer Angel) there are 3 prices shown: Lowest price on tcgplayer.com, Average, and Highest price from tcgplayer.com, colored in red, blue and green respectively.
Prices shown in all card listings are in fact the average one. Clicking on any price on the site will take you to the cards' page on tcgplayer.com, where you can see its price on all the stores that have it available.
And of course, you can choose if you want to see the lowest price, the medium one or the highest one (from Edit Profile)
Thank you for the responses. It helped me to understand.
