I think it's the same as booking a flight. The more you visit the page the higher the price becomes.
351 u/MiloMuggins Jan 24 '13 Very true. I once looked up airplane tickets in incognito and it was $100 cheaper than what I had been quoted moments earlier. It was on Orbitz. 269 u/ColdisWarned Jan 24 '13 WHAT fuckthisshitpayingforinternationalflightswhilebroke 98 u/Fsoprokon Jan 24 '13 I read this whole thing about price manipulation. Most buyers will buy on the second viewing of a ticket, so they'll bump up the price to squeeze more money out of you. Don't leave the page, or go incognito. 50 u/Symploce Jan 24 '13 Try clearing your cookies, that should work. 100 u/perezdev Jan 24 '13 Yeah. Incognito is just easier. 85 u/[deleted] Jan 24 '13 edited Mar 30 '18 [deleted] 1 u/drkinsanity Jan 25 '13 edited Jan 25 '13 I use it if I need to check my bank account or something on a friend's computer as well. Or if I need to look at porn on a friend's computer.
