    Some companies did no care (or they not are aware at all) about differences in "buying power" of currency in every country. To make an example to the limit, with 50$ in your pocket, there are places in the world you can live a full month and places you don't stand 5 minutes.

    Even the EU have big differences in their inner countries, just think at the average salary differences between Germany and Greece. I think you got the idea.

    No offence, but I think you're making it up now.

    What you're saying is because they CAN charge more, they're being money grabbers by cranking the price up? Gotcha.

    It's strange that if you follow the exchange rates:

    (figures not to be taken as absolutes)
    14800 yen = 121 dollars
    14800 yen = 115 euros
    14800 yen = 82 pounds
    129.99 euros = 92.56 pounds
    129.99 dollars = 87.91 pounds

    All close to the value they're being sold at, right? Yet UK has to pay 130 quid. Bit of a jump compared to the rest don't you think?
