Under the agency model, the publishers. That's the whole point of the model. The price drops when the publisher says it does. You're free to email your favourite store and ask why a certain e-book is still selling for hardcover price when the paperback has been out for fifteen years, of course, but the response will be 'Because that's the price we've been told to sell it at, and we're not allowed to change it.'
