    Your comment makes me laugh, Do YOU know how much tax they pay? Do YOU know the shipping costs they incur?

    Not an issue for me. US account, US shipping, US costs. Doesn't make your harebrained attempt to justify costs any more valid, though.

    You can sit and insult me all you want, funny thing though, I ordered my 2 physical copies already.

    Neither you nor I know the reasoning behind the larger cost for UK do we? No, we dont....so your harebrained attempt to make it unjustified it is just as invalid.

    "Don't like the price? Don't buy it" is a fools argument in this case.
    Also why did you bold the first few words in my quote? ah its because I gave an unsure argument, Taxes AREN'T that ridiculous.

    I bolded it to point out that everyone is assuming. Lets face it... at this point Nether you nor I nor anyone knows why the price is that much higher.

    What is whining in this thread going to do? Nothing! So it really is that simple, as unfortunate as it is.

    Dont like the price? Dont buy it.

    There is nothing you can do at this point.

    Ill sell you my 2nd one for cost + shipping from US to UK if it would work (i doubt it would)

    Shipping maybe? ( I did mention that) My fact still stands -- you dont know the reason for the higher cost.

    But yes, lets keep arguing back and forth over something that you arent going to be able to change and does not effect me one bit.

    Like I said above... there is NOTHING YOU CAN DO BUT NOT BUY IT --- Period

    As said above taxes aren't the reason, with taxes it only be just above £100.
    Once again fools argument running in circles.
    We can complain here because there are SE staff who can notice how many people have found issue with the price.
    Well duh, region lock.

    Insulting your logic isn't the same as insulting you. We all have the occasional dumb idea; that doesn't make us all dumb.

    I may not know the reasoning behind the UK costs, but VAT has been repeatedly pointed out to be 20%, which leaves, what, 30 GBP unaccounted for? If you really think it costs them 30 GBP per unit to ship. . .and that's not counting that the buyers are still going to be charged separate shipping, anyway.

    Like how the NA store says free shipping on anything over $100 but doesn't count preorders? >_>

    Unless the EU store actually does do free shipping, in which case I kinda want my $8 back. :P

    I dont know what it costs to mass ship stuff to the UK, do you? Do you have solid proof as to where it will ship from? Someone said they ship from the UK some pages back but posted no link. Bottom line is the price isnt changing and nobody knows the reason for the higher cost. Complaining in here isnt going to do anything.

    As crappy as it is -- Dont like it? Dont buy it.

    You have become like a child stamping their foot repeating the same thing again and again.
    Oh, I have plenty of posts left, I just try not to clutter multiple pages. This will be my last reply to you. Show me that proof that it will be shipped from the UK aside from another posters word.... You are the child here, stomping their feet that they arent getting their way. Now go to your room.

    As an estimate based on online UPS shipping tables, about 5 GBP per kg, max. So, for the CE to warrant 25 GBP shipping, it would need to be 5 kg, and that's using the worst rate I saw. More like 8+ kg on the more reasonable rates I saw.

    I've found UPS shipping tables to never quite meet my needs. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if the storefront uses bad shipping rates. I sent a motherboard box that had to be packed similar to the way Amazon packed my Tales of Xillia CE to some place in Canada (about 2533.1 miles) and it cost me $39.39 by UPS Ground.
