Australia - EB games confirms collectors edition but its online only

[Pence]

Wow....$300? For what? A statue? Images/Audio you can view online?....

Digital CE it is.

Terrible decision. Very. Very terrible.

[Magnesium02]

Ugh, jumping on th "cancel my deposit, going digital CE" train. Can not justify that much

Has anyone looked into the pricing to purchase the UK version and get it shipped here?

Sadly I kinda expected this pricing since UK's pricing is £130 and that's like A$250 already.
Was really hoping our pricing would be based on €130 and that's about A$189...

If this was a stand-alone game or the initial release I could possibly try and justify it but .. for an expansion that is really disheartening.

Here's to hoping SE learns from this and makes the next expansion more reasonable.

There's no lesson to be learn here.

The Expansion itself is reasonable. Check the digital pricing. https://store.eu.square-enix.com/apa...eavensward.php
A$46 for digital standard and A$69 for digital collectors

It's the physical content.

We got pawned hard cause it seems our supplies are from UK where prices are already outrageous.
NA CE $130 and UK CE £130

As we are classified under pal region... we are bound by UK pricing which is disheartening...

Addtional A$230 for ArtBook, wittle dragon sculpture, bluray and special boxing...

When I say that, I mean more in relation to their distribution channels as we clearly had the original FFXIV Collector's Edition for a much more reasonable price than this. Though logistics wise it wasn't as big and cumbersome, I'm sure if they planned better in advance they could work something out.

That would be awesome right haha! $130 for Australian CE!
But too bad not happening.

FF Type 0 CE was sold for A$199 where US was just selling for $100.
Metal Gear Solid Phantom Pain Collectors Edition selling for $100 in US, UK for £130 and in Australia... A$250...

I was so certain that it would be between A$275 - $300

I do agree.... However I don't see this happening
Since we are under PAL Region.. most likely our items are from the UK.

Plus Shipping + GST + Profit made it so expensive...

Unless repackaging and have their own distributing centre here, we won't see this happening for some major products

Warner with Mortal Kombat X is doing a great job keeping CE pricing some what reasonable

[bloodSp3c]

what muppet made the price $300??

screw that...
