If you really want to voice your complaint over the price, do NOT buy the physical CE.

Hit them in the wallet, that is the only way to make a dent.

Spot on. I'll see if I can buy it in France, the game is out around Hellfest so luckily I will be in France for a few days and I can order it at my folks. If that isn't possible then I'll buy either digital CE (depending on the price) or standard version. I am NOT READY TO PAY £40 MORE BECAUSE THEY THINK IT WILL SELL. And I'm hugely disappointed at SE too, they were doing well so far, but they crushed all of it in 24h. Well played guys <slow claps>.

Do they really need more than 24 hours to fix a "Preorder" button so that it can work properly?! o.O

They don't .. however they wanted to get the store back online at a reasonable time so that people can be made aware ahead of it going live - that way people cant complain that they missed out on the physical CE overnight (as an example).

Honestly, what concerns me is despite the general outcry from this, there are still people saying that they will purchase the Physical CE because they want the figure/book, which basically proves SE's point.

Well, I will buy it because I live in a € country.
Conversion €=$ is almost the same so I cannot see the problem, but I really, really feel your pain, UK players.
If they asked me 200€ or so for that edition I would have refused to buy it, especially because that figure is totally not worth that price.

Oh sorry, just to clarify I was talking specifically about UK players, and others I know in-game who have stated that while the price is ridiculous, they will still buy it.

Well I'm still buying the physical CE if I can get a copy.

At the end of the day nobody is making anyone buy the physical copy..there are other ones out there. If you want the figure and the book then pay the price, if you just want in game items buy the digital CE. No one is making you pay for it.

Yes but it's their choice. I hate SE for doing this but 1/ they're not the only one and 2/ sadly this is what the business is made of. If they think it is worth £40 more we can't (and don't have the right to) stop them from buying it.
I spend hundreds of VIP gigs tickets every year, I'm sure most people think it's not worth it but I don't regret it, even if I'm conscious I'm not helping the problem.

there are ppl with money and those with not many money, they can be a B-word and do thing the way you mention, put out price and some will buy or they can put down the price and get more customer & buyer

That is the point he is making, if you just buy it even if you are annoyed by the price it wouldn't stop them doing it again for the next expansion because it shows people don't mind the price if you buy it. I personally am not getting the physical collector's edition just because of the greed SE is showing to the UK players right now. I will just pay for the digital collector's edition at least that was converted unlike the physical counterpart. Also when is the store coming up this is taking way too long.
