Edited by BrayerIncognito: 11/11/2014 7:18:24 PMI'll just chuck this out here as well, to the people who say Destiny cost £40 and $60 blah blah and still think that we in the UK are getting dicked over the price of the DLC.... It would take you 6.15 hours to earn £40 on UK minimum wage. It would take you 8.27 hours to earn $60 on US Federal minimum wage. If anything paying £20 for the DLC is actually a fair price. /Thread Edit: I like a nice strong cheddar!

Camembere ftw!
-
Cheese? Oh no you don't. This topic was about DLC price disparity in the UK. Changing the topic is just no [i]gouda[/i]...
-
Oh shush and go back to sipping your tea.
-
So.....how much does cheese cost in the US??? ONLY KIDDING!!!!!!! *Runs away*
-
Mmm havarti.
-
Cheddar? Mozzarella? Provolone? I gots ta know!

Edited by BoiIed Frogs: 11/11/2014 6:57:43 PMI live in the UK but will just pay for the DLC in dollars. I buy things from ebay all the time using dollars. Heck, go to a bereau du change at your local post office and buy 20 dollars. It's a very outdated notion that you can only possess the currency of your own country, have you never been on holiday?
-
Parmesan?
-
Lmao cheese... I know this is about the high price of DLC in UK NICE TRY

Quick repost of a comment I made on another thread like this...... Remove the 20% VAT from £20 and its £16.66 and remove the sales tax from $20 (average of 7.5% for America) and its $18.60 If you were paid UK min wage of £6.50 you would need to work for 2.56 hours to pay the UK pre-tax price for the game. If you were paid an average US min wage of $7.25 (Federal) you would have to work 2.56 hours to pay for the US pre-tax game. See any difference? No. Don't blame Bungie, blame the government for the extra tax that puts the price up. Also forget about exchange rates, they don't reflect cost of living.

"Race Wars"? I just sifted through the comments and only found some "silly brit" type jokes. You think British is your race? Do me a favor. Look at your hand and let me know what color it is. Cuz that'll be your race. To your original point. That's shitty, but you guys make more than we do. Everything is cheaper here in the US in comparison to the UK. Come on over. The water's fine.
-
what is the cost of the game there ?
-
I'm a British that lives in new Zealand,it's $20 here( just under £10). Yeah it pretty harsh that its just 20 of any currency!
-
Oh, shut up. This is nothing new, stop acting like you're suffering a great injustice.
-
That's lame. Activision at its best right there.
-
Don't buy it. If enough people abstain, they will lower the price. Probably. It is Activision, after all...
-
Americans are greedy Soulless scum. Just look at bungie Microsoft activision Comcast. All horrid, add apple and google too
-
You are forgetting we have tax added to the price already bro Americans get to the counter and vat slaps them in the face
-
Yeah stop moaning, I'm in England and I'll pay whatever to continue this absolute epic game
-
Dude you had the same problem when buying your PS4!! The UK gets shafted on all games and consoles for cost. It is a joke but they aint going to stop it any time soon.
-
I hope you don't own an XB1 to boot
-
Answer: Move to the US
-
That's what you get for living in hogwarts
-
Your second edit....I really don't know what you were thinking? There's a time and a place for race war posts? Not in my spacetime continuum.

You can change your location and cheat the post code when implementing the card info. It's tricky to do and only works sometimes. That's how I'm in Sweden but my console thinks I'm in USA.
