Why do Amazon and BN have the same prices on books?

I have a BN membership so I normally buy my books through them to get the free express shipping. I buy most, if not all of my video games from Amazon, so naturally I will do price compares between the two sites on books. A lot of times I will find that both places will have the books for the same exact price. I'm not talking ebooks, I'm talking physical ones. And the prices are not commonly set prices either. For example, $7.47.It seems odd that these two feuding companies would price their books the same. Nook vs Kindle and all that.
