GozertNL Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I have the master founders pack and if i want to buy the grandmaster i have to pay 135 Euro. Calculated in USD it is 177 USD. But if you pay in USD you only have to pay 150 USD. This doesnt sound fair, does it? Why do you have to pay more if you pay in EURO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptor642 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 VAT(Value Added Tax) in the EU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venarge Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) What do you expect. Euro is more worth than USD + the TAX. Thats why you have to pay more.... Edited May 9, 2013 by Venarge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteamInferno Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Yeah, USA doesn't have any tax on cross-state transactions. Unfortunately it looks like we're getting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missile Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 this is the same thing I was talking about, yet most popular games keep the prices equal, the only thing ripping us off here is VALVE. if Warframe had theyre own account it would be way cheaper, but I think its connected to valves promotions that they dont have they're own account and valve is possibly taking part of money that our devs recieve. I still try to support devs even tough i pay roughly 30-40% more than US does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBadHunkyDaddy Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 At least it's not 1$=1€ >_> it still sucks though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snib Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 At least it's not 1$=1€ >_> it still sucks though Which sadly seems to be becoming the current standard though. That said, I actually paid the real exchange rate for Warframe, was pleasantly surprised. Maybe it depends on the payment option, I used PayPal.

Zyfe3rX Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Actually its not VAT or something, its actually a mistaken conversion rate ! The support said that it will be fixed soon ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relkin Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Could be worse, could be steam style where it costs 50$ in the US, and 50 Euros in the EU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
