£130 =/= $130

[OtakuChrash]

I am appalled.

The US CE costs $130 which is equal to £87.95

The UK CE costs £130 which is equal to $192.15

Therefore, we are paying £42.05 more for the Collector's edition. Is this a mistake? Are UK buyer's being offered something extra for £42.05 or is it pure greed?

welcome in the gamin industry, where $ = € = £

You should have expected that (even though that's not really fair to us Europeans...)

Hopefully, you are paying extra for european servers.

You could attempt to VPN stateside and get yourself a deal.

Uhh...No? You rarely see this most games that have been released all done the convert of the prices.

Bloodborne: $59.96 / £49
Type-0: $59.96 / £36.85

So i believe this must be an error or SE is being greedy right now :P

[Meridian]

This is really, really not cool. Even account for VAT and shipping costs etc, there is no need for that amount of a price increase. Blatant price gouging in my opinion.

Is that so ? Then UK are a lucky bunch

Even when the dollar was "low", the €/$ conversion in gaming industry was 1/1. Because ain't anybody got time for a 114€ game when you could put it at 130€ (or 60 in place of the normal 55. duh)

(tbh, I really thought £=$ in the UK because last time I went there, games had the same price tags than in my country... except not in the same currency ;( It may have changed since then though)

[OtakuChrash]

It would be great to get as many UK players who are offended by the price gouging in here to support this point. We can't allow ourselves to be robbed blind like this.

I have no idea why UK is so angry when Aussies get it even worse.
