Personally I think that quoting prices without VAT on this group is sharp
practice - if you want to quote the net (without VAT) price, the gross (with
VAT) price should always be given too. The only justification for giving a
net price only is that the goods are being sold only to companies (who can
claim back the VAT) or only to outside the EU (where VAT is zero rated). I
don't believe these conditions apply to the sellers quoting these prices.
Indeed I would guess that most of their sales are EU retail.

My 2p
