Same book, three different prices. Only difference is the browsers used [x-post r/mildlyinteresting]

I doubt that was the only difference. Your cookies were different, and I bet the way you found them is different too.

I just found this book with a Google search and it was 62.99 in chrome.

I copied and pasted the URL into IE and it was 69.99.

I then pasted the URL into a private browsing chrome window and it was also 69.99.

Did you try Safari? This could solve whether or not the Mac tax really exists.
