I'm british, I really don't care about emotes or shaders or ships and I personally think you have to be a little crazy to pay real money for that shite.
My problem with TtK prices are
Americans pay $40
Brits pay $62 ish
For the exact same thing which is not on!
I see a lot of people complaining about people complaining that they want free shit.
I do not want free shit, I just don't want to have to pay $22 more than the Americans.
I haven't looked at prices for other countries so don't know who else is being ripped off but feel free to have your say.
!!!! This is not about war or taxes it's greed and as a gaming community we should stick together and help each other out if we can not argue about which country has the biggest D.I.C.K because we all know that's the UK (Mr Cameron) !!!!

Wages, tax, Vat, shipping, cost of living in the UK, why is this all applied on for a DLC but not for the base game? Base game: £40 in the UK & $60 dollars in the US (preorder prices last September) DLC: £40 in the UK & $40 dollars in the US If all this mattered like all of you are commenting below, why aren't we paying £60 for the base game to match Bungies £:$ exchange rate. Amazon prime are charging £46 for The taken king standalone DLC. Which equates to 73 US dollars, you guys think the content on this DLC will justify 73 US dollars?
-
Typical brit, almost every one I meet on destiny thinks they are better than Americans
-
I'm American and I will stand with you my gaming brother!! Come on Bungie what gives how do you justify this price hike
-
Lol at all the Americans in here preaching about WWII as if they were personally involved. What your ancestors did means nothing today.
-
For all the morons saying the uk has euros shut it we have pounds And also a really high per cent of americans as you call yourselfs are only american due to the fact your ancestors decided to move there once you were colonised by the british spain france and other euro superpowers
-
It's not just a British problem.. Its not just a destiny problem....
-
If I wanted to buy a UK candy bar (I don't), I can expect to pay a hefty premium from any local Chicago store that imports it. I know it isn't apples to apples, but the point is YES I will get charged more here for buying native UK goods.

Blame greece

The tree of liberty must be fed with the blood of patriots and TYRANTS ! Happy independence day !
-
It is bizarre. I wonder why the powers that be have not explained why the pricing is the way it is. By the way, Texas has a bigger dick than the rest of the USA and UK combined!
-
"That is not ON"? what does that even mean? I hate your slang if that is correct in your country.
-
Blame Greece for your prices. They are ruining the Euro!
-
Don't buy it. I'm not. Unless they take a nice dent to their income we'll always get ripped off.
-
Silly brits, we beat u years ago so we get perks
-
If it cost 40 pesos in Mexico I wouldn't mind so much, at least that would be consistent.
-
Ummm...currency exchange rate. You pay the same.
-
Yep..That's a big time bend over for ya.!! Ouch!!

Edited by Stupid Shinji: 6/30/2015 6:31:10 PMHere's the problem, a duty rate and VAT rate are both applied to this since it exceeds 18£, the previous dlc coming in at20 u.s. dollars would have been 17.95£, the .05 is what kept it from receiving both of these rates. The new 40$ price means that both of these duties apply in the UK and many other countries.
-
It's just occurred to me that not only do the us boys and girls pay less for dlc but they also have lucky charms out there!
