I wish to vie the Amsterdam version of the Scotch and Soda web store (their head office store). However, when I click on their web address, I am automatically redirected to the Australian store because I reside in Australia. I have disable the Firefox auto geo enabled feature but this does not help. On the left hand side of the page my location is shown as Sydney Australia. If I try to change this to any city that is not in Australia, it does not accept it. How can I resolve this problem? Thanks Walter

Looks that that is a server that insists on redirecting to a local version of their site.
You can try to contact them and ask them to provide the ability to access other locations of that site.

Hi cor-el Thanks for the reply. Kindly advise who the "them" is. The Scotch and Soda company of my local internet provider company? Cheers Walter

That should be the Scotch and Soda company as they redirect you to what they consider the site that you want to visit.
