Friendly Contractors

Often building supply retail store employees become friendly with their customers (building contractors) and will do those favours. For example, they might charge customers for 90% of the flooring material being purchased, or they might hide the last of a unique flooring material for the contractor while passing on sales to others. Would the retailer treat these two favours differently?
