Why the order looks like this
Top Shelf sells visibility, not opinions. Any maker can take a higher spot on the candles & scent shelf by bidding at least $1 more than the product above them, and the list re-orders the moment they do — which is why this page carries a date and gets refreshed rather than being written once.
