Edit: not saying your lying, just thinking it might be geo related sometimes?
- terinjokes 3y agoI was buying tickets for an upcoming music concert here in Amsterdam. The map showing prices in different sections was one price, but they wanted €74 extra in "total fees", and an additional €14 in VAT.
- akvadrako 3y agoThat VAT only covers the extra fees; it's 21%.
- terinjokes 3y agoI only noticed that after writing the comment. Still feels wrong to advertise one price, then sneak in "total fees" (whatever those are) in between the checkout flow and the payment processor page.
- ivolimmen 3y agoSounds like a shady site. If you know Dutch you can report them using the meld.nl site.
- avar 3y agoPrices without VAT are the main listed price on Dutch websites whose primary clientele isn't the end consumer. Examples I remembered offhand: elektramat.nl, rvspaleis.nl Those both list the price with VAT too, but the primary list price is without. You'll find plenty of more examples e.g. if you think about what the house you're in is made of, and look for those materials in bulk. E.g. I-beams, pallets of wood, insulation etc.
- bobviolier 3y agoAhh yeah, websites targeting other businesses might give the ex-VAT price the preference. Although your 2 examples still show the price including VAT directly under the non-VAT price.
