Of course it means something when the price is stated. How can you even say that it doesn't? You could add the item to your basket, the basket page itself was an issue, but you could add the product which makes it purchasable.

You telling people not to voice their concerns is completely backwards as we have every right to do so, especially after seeing the price with our own eyes.

You have no way to confirm right now that's the actual price, since nobody could buy it then, and still nobody can buy it now.

The actual price was stated on their website, on the pre-order page. You are completely out of line dark494. People are actually voicing themselves in an appropriate manner. That 'rage' your talking about, I haven't seen it on this forum. Negative feedback doesn't equal rage and even if people were angry they would still be allowed to be. You can't tell people what or how to feel, simple as.

The price was stated on the site, your less correct with your speculations considering we saw the price. The price is the price until stated otherwise.

Show me right now where the price is stated anywhere, that you can confirm and buy it for the price everyone is complaining about. You can't, the site is down, you can't confirm anything right now. Just exercise some patience, or maturity even.

For the record, if it is actually £129.99, yeah it's a bullshit price. But I don't think that's actually the price either. There are dozens of other products and examples on the SE stores that exemplify this. There's no precedence for this, and hence no need to be up in arms this much about something unconfirmed.

You do know what 'was' means right? It's past tense. Voicing concerns have nothing to do with immaturity, on the contrary. I've already stated that there is a possibility that the price could have been an error - however, since we saw the price, it is what it is until stated otherwise. Plain and simple.

You'll get fed the region + transport cost blah blah blah line and swallow it all hook, line and sinker coz we all love the game, so they'll get a free pass.
U.K./Europe as a whole always gets the sh!t end of the stick, also add Austrailia and New Zealand to those that get gouged too.
We don't call Britain rip-off Britain for nothing ;3

Okay guys, CALM THE EFF DOWN!

If there for some weird reason is a £130 price on that page, just buy it on the page that shows price in Euro! 130 Euro like £92, and there are no region locks between EU and UK, because UK is in the damn EU

At which point they should fire their distributors and transport providers. $60 to transport a single item (forget that it'd be on a pallet with a bunch of others and transported for a fraction of the cost) from anywhere in the world to anywhere else in the world is a bit of a joke.

Even if we say it should be £100 factoring in VAT and a bit more so the SE shareholders can get a new yacht, we're still missing a big chunk of that price gouge.

In the recent live letter, Dollar and Euro prices were shown as 129.99 respectively. GBP were for some reason not included and that was most likely because they knew there would be a backlash about the inflated price.
