Can someone please tell me what is meant by Bulk shown on some dealers lists for various burners?

Well if they are selling them that means you have to buy a number of the drives not just one.

Some brand names of dvd burners will state bulk and retail,and they are a little different from one another.

Benq is one of them. The older 1620 had the bulk version and retail version. For some odd reason,the re-tail version were the re-badges,and the bulk drives were the genuine drives.This sounds like it's backwards.
Their firmware version will be different:

Bulk= B7V9
Retail= G7V9

2 different firmwares-even though both made by benq 1620. Crossflashing can be performed to turn the retail drive into the bulk drive.

Lots of re-badges out there: Benq/Lite-on/Sony/and even plextor. Check out newegg.com for any future drives.Great prices and cheap shipping.
