forgive my ignorance -- if you are paying online can't you just pay in dollars? There is no physical currency being exchanged so why can't you just transfer Euro funds into dollars and pay in U.S. dollars?

You have to use the currency and site for the version of the game tied to your account, for those of us in the UK this means we MUST use an EU key. SE have made it so we can't have the cheaper euro version shipped to us in the UK to MAKE us pay the £130.

As mentioned previously, this may infact be in breach of European Union law, which demands that all EU nation states get the same price for the same product in an online store, or the ability to purchase it from any foreign EU nation state. We don't pay import on goods sold within the EU as that's all part and parcel of the union. Fair trade laws ensure that no one nation in the EU can have it's prices jacked up without a strong and legal reason.

SE should probably give us that reason, before it ends up taken to court. There's a LOT of angry british right now over this.

If you pay in dollars that requires a U.S. Address to ship it to, if it were that easy SE probably wouldn't be charging so much for the UK version...

The digital prices have changed?

[Atreides]

Reminds me of Apple's pricing where 1$=1€ on their AppleStore, back when 1.5$=1€, thus making EU getting robbed for no reason (taxes doesn't account for such a difference)

Time to use a VPN/Proxy I guess if you wanna have decent pricing

Thank god (or Greece) this isn't the case anymore because now the € is ruined and the difference between € and $ is minor.
So the € pricing can stay for all I care, back then I would've cared but now we're talking 6 bucks...

As far as I know, digital price has always been right.
Which further enforce the absurdity of the physical CE price, since they clearly can convert $ to £ properly.
