What the hell, do they think they're Nike now? That's way too expensive for a CE box, especially when SWG has been going downhill. They might have been able to get away with that price a few years ago when they were releasing the 3 new SW movies, but now they're just trying to recoup the development costs from the boxes because they know that they won't be able to do it with subscriptions.

150 for the collectors? Ouch, def not worth it.

The company has gone mad.

Hard to tell who's crazier, the company for charging that much or Chaos for paying it.

You wanna laugh?
The CE costs 150€, which is 213,33$...
Standard edition costs 55€ (78,22$).
Again it would be cheaper to order at Amazon UK, including shipping the standard edition would be 2€ cheaper. They have not listed the CE yet.

EA is crazy with the prices in Germany, I preordered Battlefield 3 in UK and it is 10€ cheaper (or even more if I order some games for my friends and reduce the shipping per piece).

**chaos5061** · July 21, 2011, 10:39 AM

The original leak came from a polish game site and was reported when you translated the money from theirs to us dollars it would cost $220. CE is not on amazon uk yet? Hmm it is here for the us. I was planning on buying it from them but 10 minutes had gone by and so I wouldn't miss out I went ahead and preordered from orgrin since they were selling the physical CE which I never heard of a digital disturbtion site doing before but it's pretty nice. I will say that some places as of 9:00 am CST are reporting they don't have the physical CE anymore and they don't know if they will be getting anymore.

The 150€ are from Amazon.de, they have it listed.
Looking at the comments on Amazon.co.uk it seems like they don't get the CE because they sell not only to UK customers. The official price is 130 Pounds which is about the same price as in Germany.
EA sucks.

**Kamchak** · July 21, 2011, 08:36 PM

$177.00?!? I think you're right.... you should be committed.

**chaos5061** · July 21, 2011, 08:51 PM

Of course I should.

**Kamchak** · July 21, 2011, 09:56 PM
