    Unfair price discrimination


    I bought battlefield 1 two weeks ago. During the microsoft xbox christmas sale, the price drop by 30 dollars within 2 weeks from my original date of purchase. I find this totally unfair. Why would you discriminate people who bought the game early , and only
    change the price within 2 weeks? I could have saved that 30 dollars , and use it to buy another game. This is unacceptable. If the price drop was insignificant or the promotion was held perhaps a longer period away, I can understand that. But this isnt the
    case for me. I am really disappointed with the planning.

    :)

    Why are games £54.99 On Amazon?

    Nope , if its the same price in the US , it should be the same price in the UK too. Its pure discrimination.

    Xbox One Price

    That's all I want ultimately, although I still think MS can best PS4 on the price by matching it, that way I don't even think many people would consider the PS4 with a lack of Cloud power and no Kinect like functionality, and other bits I think it would
    be a deal breaker, but yeah the Console should sell internationally for $499 or whatever US has to pay in local currency only then is it fair, otherwise its price bias, discrimination and simply unfair to the consumers.

    Prices unfair

    Keep in mind that each countries currency may hold a different value. There are also different licensing and access fees for different countries.

    Can Puerto Rico be included in Microsoft Rewards once again?

    We should unite our voices in the Xbox community, this needs to be heard to make Microsoft change their stand on this problem, because this is really discrimination and unfair because if we're part of USA we should get the same benefits from Reward as
    in the States.

    I bought the vault edition upgrade for mw3 and it’s not working

    It’s kind a discrimination, we buy the game disc also original from the game shops it’s just the same as digital just with a disc, same price as digital
