This a thousand times.

I've tweeted this thread to SE's twitter. Maybe a good idea if other people do also.

I vote we get Anne Robinson on them via Watchdog XD

Or maybe trading standards.

This is a very good idea may do that after the site goes up to see if they changed it.

Whilst writing to crime watch would be amusing, it wouldn't achieve anything hehe

Try http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/archiv...contact_en.htm instead.

Ok I've worked it out.

Payment is to be taken 10 days before release, 13th June 2015. Clearly, Square-Enix know that by that date the dollar will have increased massively in value so that £1 = $1. Easy! All's fair ends fair. Now, about that online shop...

This is seriously ridiculous, there must be something we can do as consumers. Companies should not be able to get away with charging obscene prices like this. If I knew even how or what to do I'd be certainly reporting them.

1 GBP was 1.71 USD in July '14.
1 GBP is 1.48 USD in March '15.

SE just assumes the British pound is further going down until end of June.

I would love to see a community team post on this but they are obviously avoiding it :P I mean we ARE 31 pages in.
