You kidding bro? Did you miss the part where wayfair stood by the prices and stated the product descriptions were simply incomplete?

A quick google search for industrial cabinet in shopping, sorting by "price high to low" does not produce anything anywhere near these prices.

Have you ever noticed when you sort search results on amazon by lets say high to low then change your sort to something else you get an entirely different set of search results? I dont mean the order of course but I am saying the result count is different. Sort is not a filter. No results should be gained or lost in a sort. I always thought that was a little suspicious and could never understand why it happened.

I have never noticed that.
What you say should be true.
Another factor to consider is that everything now is run by algorithm. They may alter results continually in real time based on what they “think” you want to see.
In fact algorithms may also be used to set prices—say lowering the price on items that are overstocked, and raising prices on products that they are short of. That might result in the absurdly inflated prices on the cabinets.
