prices in my country

guypeles · Nov 26, 2019

Hello,

I live in Israel and the prices for games are ridiculously expensive compared to all other countries.

for example, the price for the game I want, Control, is about 54 USD (AFTER the black Friday discount), and is only 38 USD in the US. Although I know it is due to my country's policies and regulations, this is extremely disappointing and
must be resolved somehow. How could it be that black Friday prices, which are the cheapest prices throughout the year, require me to pay over 50 buck for a game, while all most other countries enjoy actual discounts. This is a shame and hurts all Israel's
xbox gamers. Dear Microsoft please help us to enjoy the same benefits users in other countries experience. If not, I will sadly not buy the next gen of xbox console, even though I am and always was an xbox consumer. This is simply unfair and ends up stealing
money from us gamers. where does this extra money goes to? how can you allow this to happen?

I EXPECT TO TO ANSWER ASAP

Thanks

Guy

Hello! prices vary by region and Microsoft doesn't have control over that.

The prices will always vary country to country.

This isn't Microsoft, it's the UK. They make the prices just as the U.S. had it's price set... (Royalty fees and Shipping)

Prices are set not by the company but by what pricing conditions exist within the person's own country. If your country has a higher standard of living then odds are your government has set higher prices for items.

So, while you see a lower price for a different country and figure the math should be equal it is not.

Prices of games on demand differ from country to country, as they do with their regular hard disc counter parts. The price is set by the publisher in the country it's being sold in. There's unfortunately nothing you could do about the game for cheaper as
that price is listed for $4.99 in the United States and $12.95 in New Zealand.

Canada is 1 country that has it's own economy, and currency. The US is another. Thus prices will vary and always will when comparing prices from 1 county to another country.
