If a retailer is big enough to have a buyer the buyer does not generally have any direct involvment in selling the item. They may research how well a product sells, get the best price for a product in order for the company to sell but do not generally "sell" the item. Also, dont think of this in today's job market. Since then companies have cut down and combined jobs where today's buyer in some companies would not fit the term "buyer" at the time of this show.
