I put in back packs and get UK sponsores but if I switch to shopping all the prices are in dollars. Not a lot of use to me??

HI neilsurf, It might be the website, do you have an example url to doublecheck that its not a language pack issue.

This is a search for rucksacks in web view, https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=rucksack#

And this is when I change to shopping view, https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=rucksack#q=rucksack&tbm=shop

In the first view the prices are in £ pounds and in the second view the prices are in $ dollars. The shoping view used to be in £ until Fire Fox last updated? Dollars are of no use to me at all

Regards

Neil Cole
