yea that's a Australia software thing, I don't know why but every one charges more for software in Australia. Its actually cheaper to fly to the us buy adobe pro box set and fly back then it is to buy the download version in Australia. The stupid thing is that there is no reason for it, even if you pay tariffs for it when you fly back in to Australia you only pay a little bit more then the download version.
Sooooo yea you can thank companies for being corrupt and no competition really existing. That said I imagine that while CCP and Sony may agree on pricing, Sony is probably independently setting the regional prices on the playstation network so you may want to see if CCP can have them change it.
Also any eve players here know if Australia pays more then 15AUD a month for eve? I would be interested to know. |

its sony like all major software companies they are gouging other parts of the world because they know you will pay. Its not limited to the games industry, it probably not limited to the software industry, but I know for a fact that the software industry is gouging Australia (probably other countries too) with no lawful reason other then they can and they believe they get more money that way.
Here read you fill I googled it for you. oh in my search I found that many companies have lowered their prices after being summonsed to explain the price difference. You may want to let Sony know whats going on with that and tell them you are notifying your commerce bureau, so they had better start changing prices.
