Yep, so when you hear Europeans complaining about being shafted by price and so on now you know why.

But hey, at least you get HDTVs and Nintendo Wiis with your PS3s. :lol:

Man, you guys do kinda get boned with the prices of stuff, so the PSP is like just under 120 pounds for the core pack???

Kernel Kev · 04-04-2007, 06:01 PM

No argos still sell them at £150, which is like $280 or around about.

It's not until you live in another coutry outside of Europe you come to realise that the UK is being taxed to death... also that companies are just over pricing everything.

One extreme example... a few years ago the proce for a brand new GTI Golf was cheaper here in Canada than it was in the UK. Explain that then??? it is made in Germany just a mere 1000 miles from the UK so shipping charges are low compared to sending the car over 6000 miles to the West coast!!!
Oh and these were not special sales deals these were official VW car lot prices.

I think this is one of the reasons that the UK is such a powerful country considering its size, we work our arses off to afford the things we want.

I dont know about pay in jobs, the difference, like you may not earn as much as us if you converted it into our currency, kinda, i dont know, im talking too much now. LOL

Minimum wage here is probably about $7.50ish, which is about 3 pounds and 30 pence I think... How much would you say on a average it is over there?

weezer · 04-05-2007, 02:28 AM

Minimum wage in Indiana is around $5.15 I think. Maybe $5.50.

bamhm182 · 04-05-2007, 02:33 AM

I was asking about in the UK, but okay, lol, minimum wage here is $6 something. I was talking about the average for the nation.
