Legally they have to, their business sales tax would get fucked as there would be a difference between sales figures and revenue.

All companies have to do this, but sure let’s circle jerk here.

    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?
