Effetto Caffelatex, 1000ml. 16.99GBP delivered to UK  or 24.99€ for Germany, and that is not including postage.

what gives?

would be cheaper to have it sent to my sister and have her post it.

Good stuff that latex. I think I got a good deal on it from Tredz with their £5 off deal.

Brexit

Oh, has it happened already?

I could have sworn everyone was still arguing about "deals" and a second referendum...

Glad that's over then, I can turn the telly back on...

Oh no!

Its algorithms, innit. Prices are set (I suspect) by bots scouring other sites. UK pricing is probably set comparing to UK sites and German sites used for German pricing. If no-one is selling it or selling it cheap in Germany, Germans get RRP (or the Chiggle version of it).

Hmm....Great.

24,99 in Germany is about the same price as other outlets here.

It's cheaper in Greece. But I don't live there.

I don't know about that but I do know that CRC/ Wiggle pocket the VAT.  I discovered when my VPN went all dalek on me that unlike most places, if you appear to be outside if the UK, their price doesn't always drop by the amount of VAT on the product.  So they are making an extra 20%.  Not always and not in all products but often enough that it isn't a mistake.
