Whats up with OCuks pricing on vat

Arcimbaldo · 22 Mar 2010 at 16:43

Hey all,
I was browising around for the PhenomII 550 and saw ocuk listing it for 61.99, i thought it was a sale or something so went to purchase only to find that as soon as i put it into the basket the price went up to 71.99, I was just letting you know as its very misleading, the prices shown that are inc vat do not inc vat and the prices shown to be excluding vat is right. Just leeting youknow

Doesn't show like that for me, and I doubt they've updated the site in 4 mins...

Higadeb · 22 Mar 2010 at 17:05

I've reported this more than once: it can be quite annoying.

When logged in it takes the vat rate from your default delivery country - as you have no delivery address setup I think it must be defaulting to zero, I'll have a look at changing that default to standard UK rate as it makes more sense.

I can't see why you would see anything unusual - unless you'd just clicked the inc/ex vat link on the top right.

Please email [email protected] with any details if it does it again for you.
