Just wondering. The Fatpack / 25k / 500 packs are 24.99 $ but 26,99 € with European language settings.

Reason?

    Sorry, this was meant to be placed in the MTGPQ board. Maybe it can be moved there. Thanks!

    Same now for Dragons Hoard.

    It's 49,99 $ / 54,99 €.

    Could we please get an explanation for the european customers?

    Which is about 10 € more as the actual price we would have to pay in Europe.

    I think it is just a disadvantage for being better players.

    Maybe they don't know how to convert USD to EUR : today around 1.10 :
    - real conversion : 49.90 / 1.10 = 45.45 EUR
    - D3 conversion : 49.99 * 1.10 = 54.99 EUR

    I should teach them how forex works...

    NB (for trolls) : My first sentence was a joke, nothing else.

    May we get an explanation devs?

    I mean maybe there is one, maybe it has to do with taxes or whatever and in case you explain it we would understand and just be fine.

    Where do you play from ? Because from France prices are :

    Dragon's hoard 49,99€
    Mirrorwing Dragon 29,99€

    Which is still more expensive because 1 € is more than 1 $ but better the price you see.

    I don't understand that behaviour at all. I mean i've dropped a few hundreds on this game already. Is there really no understanding for the wish to have this question answered? As i said there might even be an explanation i'm not thinking of and with which i would be okay. But being ignored like that is something i can not understand at all.

    Canadians have the same price in CDN as Euros do, if it's any consolation.

    I think the answer for the same thing on the Marvel forums was VAT that is charged in the EU. But I think that answer was from a user and not the devs there.
