Since they're time sensitive the people involved need to be online and playing. If you're selling a bear obviously you're online and just slew it. Also by advertising that you're selling it you're marketing towards players currently online who have the potential to buy it immediately. If you're buying bears and someone kills one there is no guarantee you'll get online soon enough to purchase it. It will most likely either decay or be sold to someone else.
Any smart trader will know that the seller has goods that will spoil soon, and will offer the absolute minimum to obtain them. The closer the goods get to spoiling, the more wiling the trader will be to sell them for beans, for fear of losing them all together.
