Seems that way doesn't it?
Sometimes resellers lower their prices below the price of their providers. It happens, there isn't many ways to prevent that unless a resell agreement/contract forbids it. It's a case to case thing.
You got a better deal... hmmm. be happy?

Bet if you use dollars it doesn't work out that way, it's just the exchange rates being all weird that makes gtcs the best value for money for us brits.
Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience. |

specifically:
Quote:If you buy goods online from outside the EU for delivery to the UK, you'll have to pay Customs Duty and Import VAT on top of the purchase price if the goods are above a certain value - though Customs Duty is waived if the amount of duty payable is -ú9 or less.
it's you committing tax evasion (import VAT: 20% of price and any duties that might apply) when buying from shatteredcrystal, not CCP ripping you off.
So for a law abiding citizen who buys a small amount of GTCs the shatteredcrystal price would be -ú26.40. |

Anyways CCP get the money no matter what with the SC or through the site. CCP only wants PLEX prices to drop so they do these special offers. Its a win-win either way for CCP no matter what site ya use.

The "Deal" is that you pay the monthly subscription rate compared to the $5 extra every two months for GTC's. If you are going to drop that much on a PLEX 10 back for yourself, you are better off getting a 1 year subscription and enough saved to by 4 PLEX |

More likely that CCP hooks them up with a good deal if they buy bulk PLEX keys for sale. If they sold as high or higher we'd all just go to the source since they have our info already anyway. Its the reason digital copies of games are almost always as much as the instore version despite the fact that you are buying it right from the publisher and there is no product manufacturing/shipping cost.
