UK) I arent complaining but wouldnt mind it changed, I just know most people would see it and say "Oh well I am paying less", and you are paying less because the money is converted to Yen by SE/ultimate pay/C&B etc and goes to thier head office so they get more money from EU than other places.
I am mearly stating a fact that americans are paying less, it has always been that way and always will be because the UK has about the strongest currency in the world, and probably will do for a long time. I'm just thankful they didnt do a 1:1 ratio because I would be paying 1,185.91 yen, a whopping 400 yen more which would be really bad.
