Randomization happens when probing for new wireless networks or bluetooth devices. Existing connections use your actual mac.

In that case, can they just design some equipments to sniff the existing any connections to correctly ID a repeat customer?

Bluetooth is fairly hard to sniff because it has encryption and frequency-jumping built in. It can be done though, maybe with an UberTooth One or similar. http://ubertooth.blogspot.com/
