I've had this a few times, and it's has always been a combination of POS and I class availability.

Effectively when pricing with a UK POS, one of the legs had no I class availability, but when pricing on BA.com with the POS in Norway, the whole itinerary was available in I. So getting the agent to switch to Norway POS effectively opened up extra availability, rather than just giving a different price.
