Wasn't any real reason to lock the thread, although I suppose the forums aren't exactly the greatest place to post this *shrugs*

When you log into your account, the prices break...



It's doing it in every section of the site.

It then shows a different price inside the products, it's does it in every browser when you're logged in (logged out is fine).

It's then fine if you click on a product.



The listings pages are borked in FF3 for me though :confused: The prices in brackets aren't the right prices... They're still Ex Vat

Other people have noticed this before (in the giant "OcUK has a present/SPAM" thread)...

I've got no cache or browsing history at all, as I don't turn it on in FF...

Browsers tried
IE7, IE8, FF2, FF3, Opera (latest) and Chrome Beta

edit: appologies for repeat thread, but something is borked =/

Yep that's it.

I've logged in in IE/Opera/Chrome and it breaks the prices.

Logging out and they return to normal.
 
Its ok when loged out but when loged in it shows duplicate price for vat from no vat.

Btw did you guys use the recent 666 code or is it just a co-incidence that it started happening when i bought a hdd using it.

I have used the 666 code yes, but I haven't properly bought it yet... I've just put the code in to see how much I'd say on my order. 23 odd quid, not enough to make me buy this early before Xmas... so I'm waiting for price drops etc... :)
 
Do OcUK get a lot of business orders? Never quite understand why a site would bother with the excluding VAT prices if they weren't catering mainly for business customers....

It's to try and 'fool' people into thinking the prices are cheaper. Happens a lot on ebay as well.
