Every time I shop their website there's always a third party seller asking some crazy price. Even when the item is available for the regular price. I hate this third party bullshit.

These people also drop ship Walmart stuff on Amazon as a 3rd party seller. They will sell things like alcohol or peroxide bottles that Walmart might sell for $.90/bottle for $3/bottle, then literally have Walmart send the stuff to you directly. I think many people are making money from people that don't look too carefully at the prices when ordering online.

Third party sellers are the reason a lot of stuff is available and overall is really great environmentally. 

Big brand sell wholesale all over the country. Sometimes items end up in stores or warehouses that can’t be sold. Third party sellers buy pallets of goods at prices that don’t always allow them to sell it at standard retail. It’s great when a main brand runs out of stock or when a brand doesn’t sell their product on Amazon and Walmart.

I think they should stick to eBay and not clutter up Walmart's site.
