Looking at some forks I purchased recently and the price had jumped up 20 euro, stick private browser on and drops back down! Cheeky buggers!
German VAT has changed from 19% down to 16%... could this be it?

Nah! probably cookie/tracking on the web page knowing I've already bought one. No other reason my friend would see a different price or I would on private browser.
Which forks?
If your browser is set for delivery outside of the EU, it will show prices without VAT.

Probably this, my work PC goes via a VPN that jumps between Europe, middle east and America, the usual clue is the BBC site stops working if it's jumped out of the UK, but online shopping sites change the prices too.

Nope, no vpn or anything either. VAT would be a lot more than 20 euro as well.
Amazon's all over individual pricing...
Tell us which fork, and we can have a look.

I think it's this - it's a bit odd - headline 'anon' price seems to include 3% cut, but as soon as you log in you then have to apply a code 'taxreturn' to actually get that price in your basket.
This is the fork: https://r2-bike.com/ROCK-SHOX-Suspension-Fork-29-LYRIK-Ultimate-Charger-21-RC2-DebonAir-SA-150-mm-BOOST-tapered-red-42-mm-Offset
I see 672,41 € in normal browser and 650 € in private. I have previously purchased this fork for 650 a month ago. My mates looks at it in normal browser and its still 650 €.
666.81
672,41
650,00 in private mode
If I change shipping country to Germany it is 650
£666.81 for me
Only 560,34 to Albania 🙂
Selecting Germany as my country gives me 650,00
Other countries give other amounts, because of differing VAT rates, and it clearly says what vat rate is applied.
When DE selected: including 16% VAT
When UK selected: including 20% VAT
650 euros @16% vat
672.41 euros @20% vat
Had to reload the country to get it to show as 20% vat.
Use code TAXRETURN to get 3% off, that should sort it out for you
Wonder why it let me buy it for 650 last time?
German VAT has changed... and they've kept German prices much the same and the prices for other countries are calculated from that, I suspect.
I was going through this last night as the price on the 2020 forks are excellent on there.
Picked up a Pike Ultimate for £570 When using the code.

Yeah I’m just waiting for the black Lyrik Ultimate with 51 offset to come back into stock.
