Amazon prices

[izard]

Any idea why the same item on Amazon.de costs me 7% less than it costs my wife? We are using the same link, but see different prices... Of course I ordered it, but what the heck?

A/B testing?

I think loyal customer just pay more - my wife orders more stuff, so algorithm would think she'll buy anyway. But it does not realise we compare prices, while we are behind same NAT.

I've seen the price change when I logged in.

new price was higher, right? In my local supermarket cashiers also make errors only to the shop's benefit too.

Yes, but now I remember that it wasn't Amazon. It was Orbitz.

Ой, как-то это звучит, будто сравнение цены "для меня" идёт не с "для неё" а с "моей женой".
