It's not like the price of Shrapnel games in Europe doubled - just the value of the dollar halved, no?

Can't Europeans who want to take advantage of the dollar losing half its value, find a way to order from the USA?

It shouldn't be a problem to pay for the game is USD if you don't mind waiting for the international shipping.

I won't comment on those photographers.

The international shipping is something like 2 or 3 weeks though. Better do it fast if you want to play anytime soon...

I live in the Netherlands and I ordered the game from the official store here. It took about a week to arrive. I paid $62,45 for the product plus shipping, the price in euros was €40,36.

Considering that stores you buy games from IN Europe will convert dollars pretty much 1:1 into euros to determine their prices, I felt I got quite a good deal there.

Waiting is one thing, but besides the $12 shipping cost, any goods imported into the EU is subject to customs taxes and VAT - so in the end I have no idea what my final cost will be.

First time I've ever heard about this - every online store I used in the EU will only let you pay in Euros.

I think moderation meant that the European shops will buy gmaes from US for X dollars, and sell those same games for X euros.
