Funny most people will drop 100 bucks just going to the movies and a dinner and not think a thing about it.

The price is fine.

Advanced Squad Leader + Beyond Valor costs a lot more.
Some other boardgame (east front) from MMP (operational) costs like $160 (preorder $120).

While it's a lot cheaper to make copies of a computer game I think there other costs that need to be cowered compared to a boardgame, like making sure that it works on as many computers as possible and hunt down and eliminate bugs. A boardgame should without much testing be compatible with most tables

I'm in the EU and ive paid $79.99 for digital download which equates to roughly £50. Beats all these latest consol games at the same price

Aren't price threads fun!! Okay, I bought the original version game (pictured below) for $60.00 in the 80's. I bought the DOS version for $40.00 in the 90's. So it is obvious that this version should be $20.00!! And as it is being sold during the Christmas sale-time, it should have 33% off, so figure $14.00 (if YOU'RE paying, always round down!). Now, If I use some of the logic used in the thread above, I won't be playing it 24 hours a day, but 18 tops. So the price should be reduced to $9.00 (if YOU'RE paying, always round down!). Now, I certainly won't play it every day either. There are "family" holidays that she-who-must-be-obeyed will makes sure that I can't. So after removing those days from the price, and adjusting for consumer price indexing, cost of living increases, inflation, leap years, etc, etc. To make a long story short...


Matrix, you owe me a download link, serial number, and $25.00!

I wonder why the price is Euro 63,99 for the DL-Edition and after clicking on the button to buy it the price is Euro 64,99 plus VAT.

Hi Harald,

This is unfortunately because of price caching. We have to cache the prices from the store to speed up the page loads. They update their prices daily and if you hit the right time when they've done their update and we haven't refreshed our cache yet, sometimes we lag behind the latest price conversion. The price you see once the product is in the cart is always the correct price and should never vary by more than a small amount.

Regards,

- Erik

£65 is over my "normal" limit of £50 for a game - but I was expecting it this time and also held off purchases of other games in order to get this

Bearing in mind that the price includes 17.5% VAT (UK tax), a physical copy and delivery,

I've always meant to ask you guys from the UK....what is your pound/crown backed by? Also what are the materials used to make your pounds/crowns? Gold? Silver? Copper? Brass? what?
