when I saw the conversion rate between USD and Euro I quickly put that thought out of my mind.

The conversion rate banks are using are 1,3108 USD per Euro. That means that for the guardian of neverwinter pack (59.99 USD) the price in euros should be 45,76 Euros. What does perfect world charge? 55.99 Euros.
Thats just dumb.

Thats charging european customers 10 euros too much. Ofcourse if you wanted to buy the hero of the north founder's pack that would be 189,99 euros. It should be around 152 Euros....

Not I can understand if you overcharge europeans with a slight disadvantaged conversion rate just because you can but this is just silly.

    No, you can't buy dollars but you can exchange Euros to USD.

    You may also need a US address in order to "trick" PWE and Paypal.

    /sigh this is just wrong.

    PWE charge $59.99 dollars
    Converted to EUROs thats (by your figures) 45,76

    Then as you are in Europe, you have to pay VAT on top

    which pushes the value back up to around 56 euros.


    PWE still only get 45,76 euros from the founders - the VAT man gets the other 10 euros.

    Yup. Kim is right.

    saying that you even considered it tells me you would rather pay for the upgrades rather than be EPIC and earn them.

    It was a joke. In EU we dont sue everyone for everything.
