Google Shopping - probably one for Ethel

[stompe]

When I try to Google shop it seems to fly me to America and give me shops and prices in $. Please can someone tell me how to Google shop up in good old sterling.

Thanks,

Just underneath the google bar is an option, 'pages from the UK' ,click on this link

Go on the Google homepage Ethel and look where it says images/maps/news etc at the top of the page,it now also says shopping.I have just checked and mine takes me to � sterling prices.

Note the word Beta below the google logo, it's not a final release so probably doesn't cover the UK yet.

[Ethel]

In the 'advanced product search' the only option is $, so it looks as if it is all US based

Hmmm, take that back all my results are in sterling.

Did you start from the google.com or the google.co.uk page?

[daffy654]

I started on the .co.uk site Chuck.

[Ethel]

Yes, going from the google home page, clicking 'pages from the uk' and then shopping does the trick

I never ever use google home page. Is that unusual?

Thanks guys. Without your help I would have not worked it out. I was not going in from google.co.uk, I was going in using google.com

Thanks all

I don't know what aspect of Google Shopping is in Beta phase but it has existed for years and has always given results in pounds Sterling when accessed from the UK version of the site.

I tend to use it to find a reference price for items before searching elsewhere or to guide me for my maximum bid price on eBay etc. in order to gain a bargain.

Occasionally the results may show the lowest price available.
