You Euros need to calm down! Best Buy's website is showing it for $39.99, available on March 12th.
Now, I am from the US, so that means I don't do math, so I have no idea who'll be paying more.

yeah, it's kind of ironic that Atari are publishing a box-set for stores that'll be inherently cheaper to buy online from somewhere like Amazon due to their lack of sales tax.

Well, if you're talking about VAT, then Denmark has got 25% if you're talking about taxes in general, then the highest tax payers in Denmark pay about first 8% and then 49% of the monthly income.
Reading these forums is kinda like watching a car crash is super slo-mo. Fascinating at first, but rapidly becoming appalling... yet you can't quite tear yourself away! |

Dynabyte.nl currently has it listed for Ç16,99 (although their prices on the pre-orders can be changed) I hope the price is right though, would be some nice cheap PLEX.

34.99 $ <=> 28 Ç
So, there's something I don't understand with the 39.99 Ç price in Europe. Hey, CCP, do you want to **** us ?

Nah, that is typical debate when 10$=10Ç, the tricky thing here is that's not only it's not priced at the same "value" (be 34,95 both or 39,99 both), but the fact that europeans are going to pay way more.
It's going to be unfair always for some side (unless you manage to update the change rate, wich I also think is ridiculous), but to put it a little less unfair, at least 34,95 or 39,99 both Ç and $.
Or, at least, hear some kind of official justification.

It's been quite a few years now since a dollar was worth more than a euro. This is not some overnight currency fluctuation here.

The world is going bankrupt and you're worrying about a few euro's or dollars, or whatever dirty currency you use... (see, exchange rates for more info)

OK, if it's 39.95 USD, then that still brings the value of it to $62AUS, so they are rounding it up to $69.95 gouging us here in AUS.
