1. Redirects to amazon.co.uk, book not found
2. Redirects to amazon.co.uk, book found
3. Redirects to amazon.co.uk, book found
4. No redirect, book found at amazon.com (The Complete Miss Marple Collection isn't available at all, even on similar title on Kobo or Amazon other than USA. I've seen that too often, even for one book in the middle of a series).
5. No redirect, book not found, but shows "More Results".
6. No redirect, book found at amazon.com

So in Ireland with an IP that geolocates* to a nearby Irish City, same as pdurrant.

[* IMO Geolocation / ISP tables of IPs should be illegal]

Maybe for completeness I should do it on a different browser that's got no logged in Amazon cookies? Curiously a friend in the City sometimes sees different prices to me for the same ebook (like 99p instead of 84p)
