I do not think they (Meridian USA or Meridian distributors) want to make a new pricelist every week.
We in NL have a large price difference with the UK price list compared to the normal exchange rate (like 15-20%). I assume for currency fluxtuations.

Also we have had a certain increase in the price in July 2009 (10-25%) which is in no relation to the currency ( pound/euro exchange )
But i think this price increase was also in the UK.

Perhaps M steers the price depending on the market ? I think more brands do this.
