At the moment when those ... rumors ... got started I DID see prices without surcharge. And quite a few other people in various countries saw that too.
Yep, me too

Methinks, Amazon took a look at their P&L statement and said, "Nah, that's too much money to throw away..." or it was just a very expensive glitch.

I note also that TAGS have disappeared. Ho hum. Either that is deliberate or the system is unstable. I cannot imagine why they would remove them, so I tend to think the latter. They're carrying a lot of complicated inventory; it must be a bit of a pig to administer.
