Booking tickets online for The Lionking musical on Sunday, and witnessing algorithmic price manipulations on Disney's website.

After I returned to the website a second time, the price for the same seat went up by ~50%!

Changed my IP address, and I now get presented the original price again.

Gross.

I do this all the time. I check on my phone, from my wifi, from a VPS I own overseas, and from Tor. Especially for large purchases.
