So the prices change based on who's looking at them? What if two people are looking at them at the same time? How does this work?

How about the one who happens to be looking at it the "closest" (according to the algorithms)? That would pretty much immediately turn into a "I see you can buy it for a lower price, how about I pay you to buy it for me instead" situation...
I suppose you could use lenticular screens like those used in some cars to avoid driver distraction[0 - old article but you get the point] or for the 3D effect in the Nintendo 3DS. This might be getting a bit silly though...
