    Yes. Weird enough they know about us when it comes to money and the EUR exchange course to make more unjustified money.(e.g. Nanamo figure is $35 but 40€, which is $45 if converted by today's course).

    We should keep bumping this thread to get devs attention. I'm sure EU mount collectors would hate to miss it without being provided any chance to get it, because all codes are region locked and there are no any EU codes in existance.

    A lot of the time this happens in the US also. For example: Ive almost bought artbooks or other merchandise on the NA SE store, only to discover they are up on Amazon.co.jp w/ shipping available to the US for far cheaper. AND I tend to get them before the SE store folks get their orders.
    My point, check Amazon.co.jp for merch prices first and see if they ship to you. (ie. You can shop in English on the Amazon JP store if you click the globe icon beside the search bar and change the language to EN.)

    I realize this doesnt offer any assistance in the way of the Promo items... but atleast it may help some folks get cheaper/faster merchandise. (I get a lot of Taito Game station merchandise thats unavailable outside of Japan the same way) just be aware much of this type of merch is only available via third party sellers, so verify the shipping cost and items your buying before completing your purchase. Just to be safe.

    Good luck and I hope the EU folks get this item soon as well.

    Mostly because taxes are quite different.

    To keep it trivially simple: if you want earn 1, in a tax-free place you sell at 1, while in a 50% tax environment you need to sell at 2.

    Correct. Most EU people don't seem to know the fact that prices on US stores are usually displayed without adding sales taxes (as those differ from state to state in the US). Prices on EU stores must include VAT.

    35$ is 32€ today, adding 19% VAT (Germany) gives you 38€, which is pretty close to the 40€ price tag
