    They blame it on high VAT and other things.

    The value of the pound is high, so it seems alot more then it really is, but it's still alot more.

    People in the UK get paid more then the US, but things cost more so it balances out. But still £180 is way to much. I would settle for £130. >>

    Yeah, that is the downside I see no point to it. It's good for wanting extra, though I can't see why you would want 2 drums.

    That completely sucks for Europe. Lucky I live in the US.

    Added to that they get games released even after the US gets them.

    But $378 for a video game? Wow that's a lot.
