Actually, if I understood correctly, what I believe he said was that the price data was fetched and inserted into the page by JavaScript, and the JavaScript code in question was unable to resolve the host name it needed to contact to fetch the price.
Yes, it is fetched with JavaScript. See below.
If the host has an IPv6 address, and if either (a) the IPv6 address isn't reachable or (b) there's something messed up in the IPv6 configuration on your end, such that /no/ IPv6 address is reachable, then it's entirely plausible that disabling IPv6 could fix an issue like this.
Newegg doesn't have a single IPv6 address attached to any of their domains. That's also ignoring the fact that Firefox, as well as glibc, will start with a IPv4 address by default unless it detects you have a real (non 6to4) IPv6 default route. Toggling a little setting in Firefox will do jack squat.
Explain yourself out of that one. I'm done with this thread.
