Hi,
we solved the issue. I cannot fully reproduce how, but will tell you all I got:
the issue starts with the merchant center crawler who uses this link ending: /currency=EUR or whatever currency.
this selected some other country, which we do not charge tax for and therfore it showed google net prices.
we have the geolocation app, install it and activate the country selector. Then go to your site and look at the countries you can select. I think with th currency=eur ening, it selects the first eur country.
I cannot recall fully, where you can edit this list, but its in shopify settings.
Solution:
we put a country into the list, we dont even ship to (Andorra) and added a tax override of 19% (german VAT). Google now crawls andorra prices (net, but + our tax) so no price mismatch.
You should try out some countries, but if you cannot add any other british pund countries, just remove all but UK.
cheers
Unfortunately this doesn’t work for us. I don’t know your GMC setup, but Google is crawling our URLs with “currency=GBP” in, which ought to return VAT inclusive prices, but doesn’t.
We aren’t using any kind of geolocation app for pricing, so there shouldn’t be anything causing issues one way or the other with this.
Thanks for your help, though
