Here is the story: I live in Switzerland and regularly shop online from stores outside of Switzerland. Many merchants either redirect me to their “Swiss” website – complete with Swiss prices, or charge me higher prices than I was charged when I lived outside of Switzerland. Has anyone found ways to get around these ripoffs?

The only way to avoid being redirected to a merchant’s Swiss website is to take steps to avoid dynamic pricing, such as using an anonymous browser. You can find more on this here: /en/online-shopping-protecting-yourself-from-rip-offs
