Ive never heard of such a thing before. Like ive been buying things all my life and ive never once got a cheque in the mail saying "that fridge-freezer you bought went down in price, here's £20 back"

How many places do you buy from with regional pricing?

Regional pricing is when you start dealing with local business tax laws and this happens. This isn’t about a price change from a sale, its from changing from say UK pricing to Madagascar when they introduce regional pricing for there.

Why are you assuming this is for a sale difference?
