£130 =/= $130

Didn't we start a war so we didn't have to pay more money to the people across the pond? Seems like its still paying off.

In all seriousness though, yeah that should be adjusted, world currency is a scam anyways, "hey we're running out of money, heck just print more" problem solved.

For the people saying "this happens with every game" or the like. Just look at current US vs UK pricing differences on the SE store (obviously not right now because it's down). Type-0 CE is £79.99 and $99.99, not £1 = $1, FFX/X-2 HD PS4 is £39.99 and $49.99, not £1 = $1. There are many more examples. I'm not sure why they found it appropriate in this case.

I'm amazed that not more people have realized that it said 130 Euro for rest of Europe...

Do you really think it's just UK that is getting it so pricey? Prices are almost always the same for a region, and Europe always have the same...

It's probably just another problem they have had

except that at present 130 euro = £95 so its still £35 cheaper in the EU than the uk

Depends how you look at it.

130 Euro = $137.
£130 = $192.

Ouch.

Exactly, paying £35-£42 extra isn't anywhere near acceptable. Especially when you can see that they've converted the other games that they have from the EU store/NA store in a more acceptable manner. Even the Heavensward Digital CE edition is converted more properly with just a few £'s difference to $.

You completely missed the point of what he said. It appears to be nothing more than an obvious site error, which you could confirm elsewhere by just seeing that there doesn't exist any product on their store where $ = £. People need to calm down and wait for the site, and likely the price, to get fixed and put back up, since nobody can confirm or buy anything with the site undergoing maintenance.

People have a right to voice their concerns, There's no guarantee that it was an 'error' or that they'll adjust the price from the feedback they are receiving now, but if we don't give them any feedback, they don't have anything to go on assuming it wasn't an error at all.

The issue is that you and everyone else have nothing to go on right now because the site is down for various issues. This shoot first and ask questions later mentality is just stupid. Everyone just needs to take a chill pill until the site issues are sorted out and something concrete can even be confirmed, because at this time there is no site, there are no pre orders, the price may as well be $0 or £0 because nobody can buy anything.

There's no official word to the contrary on any hypothetical I'm bringing forward, and that's the whole point I'm trying to drive at. The fact that nobody could even purchase it when it was up for £129.99 could very well be a related issue to the price being wrong, you have no idea how it's coded but it's certainly possible. I'm only urging that people wait until they fix the site issues and then confirm what the actual price is, because nobody knows exactly all of the issues they could be fixing.
