hi,

try just putting in the price attribute of the item the price inc. VAT and dont add any tax or alternative tax table in the cart

this way goog will ignore vat and just add the item price that includes VAT.

suggestions, put somewhere that the price includes vat, (in the attributes or description of the item) to avoid buyers confusion

hope this helps

I want to specify prices of items that include VAT already. Is this possible?

At the moment, I pass over the basket contents and the standard VAT rules for the UK (17.5%) and google then adds on VAT.

I don't want to have to pass over prices that are ex VAT, as we sell to the public and the rule is that we should show them the price they pay, not the price without VAT.
