Wasn't that workaround proven not to work?

Prolly, you have any documentation?

It’ll work to some degree, but with retailers using price discrimination they’ll give you prices based on many factors that they think will get them the most money.

Also consider:

  • iPhones and MacBooks are an indicator of wealth, crank up those prices
  • location is another significant indicator. Live in the Bay Area? You rich, you can probably afford higher prices. Bay Area MacBook? Chriiiiist gonna rinse you dry.
  • browser fingerprinting bypasses cookies and is the same in incognito and regular tabs.

OK, so you should spoof your hardware to get the best prices? And use a VPN to poor city?
