Why are the DLC's price the same regardless of country/currency?
£40=/=$40. $40 right now is only £27.57. That's massive! We pay £13.43 ($19.49) more for no reason! That's outrageous! That is almost 4/3 the price the U.S. customers pay. Bungie, can you please, please, PLEASE, adjust the price of your upcoming DLCs because people in the UK and Europe are getting screwed over massively, paying huge fractions more than Americans for no reason.
Can you please adjust your prices because this is very unfair and doesn't paint you in the best light either to us, really.
Anyone agree? Thanks for reading
P.S. I don't want to see any Americans going on about "it's not a big deal, you're just a cheapskate who can't afford a bit more cash" cause that's really insensitive. What if you were charged 33% more for everything? Not the best comparison but that's what's happening to us. And please don't try to make excuses for Bungie about shipping or Internet or labour cost cause this is massive.
P.P.S. I wouldn't mind paying up to £30 to cover the cost of shipping, Internet and labour what involves getting DLCs into this country but it doesn't cost them 33% of that. £2.43 isn't much and I wouldn't mind paying that extra but £13.43 is massively unfair. Thanks for reading :)
Edit: Ok, we got a 20% increase tax which amounts (according to a comment below) would cost us £33.10, still not £40. So we should get it cheaper still but geez man. Where's the extra £6.90 come from!? It's still over 20% the price for nothing.
Edit: HOORAH! It's £25! Although, when stacked it should cost £20.76 but hey, it's £3.24. Not much ok!

You're talking sh it. Stop

Maybe if you guys weren't stupid enough to buy that last dlc when you guys got shafted "Hey look we didn't adjust the currency and the losers still bought it. We can do it again" Maybe if the UK didn't buy in protest they would have fixed it

18 RepliesJust so everyone knows..... Hours worked on UK Min wage to pay £27.57 = 3.4 Hours worked on UK Min wage to pay £40.00 = 5.5 Hours worked on US Min wage to pay $40.00 = 5.5 So how exactly is the UK being ripped off?? Oh and before Australia kicks off, you guys earn $17.29 Min wage, that's why you pay like $60

30 dollars translates to 245 Swedish krona. The game is on sale for 269 sek at the Swedish Playstation store. Not a big difference. We have high taxes in Sweden. About 20-30%. 50% for high income receivers, like Sony....

Blame your country's tax on electronic items not Bungie.

Edited by Ravnican393: 6/10/2016 12:53:50 AMOne question how much do you get paid per hour in us dollars? Nvm answer i was looking for was in comments

I say decrease Europe's price, don't increase the US's price.
-
The problem may be US tax law. The US tax law is bad, and is probably the cause of the price difference.

2 RepliesYour really bitching about 6.90? That's like a cheap meal in most places,not worth crying over.

Demand merits price. Basic rule. As long as Europeans will pay forty euros, Bingovision will charge that much. I hate to say it, but unless you don't want to play destiny, you're stuck with that price.

No one is saying it's £40 bud.

Happens pretty much with all goods when comparing dollar value against sterling. Will not change any time soon.

1 ReplyIt's already on PSN for £24.99

2 RepliesBecause we are mugs in the uk. We get ripped off on pretty much everything. Electricals, housing, cars, petrol, home energy prices. All worse than pretty much every country on the planet.

4 RepliesDid they actually say 40$ or is that just the assumption?
