So when I was about to make the 2 dollar purchase for the "only once" deal, I notice its 1.99 dollars price, but when I click on purchase, it obviously changes to euro (which is a more valuable currency (1 euro = 1.13 dollars at the time I'm writing this thread), so I'll understand its lower in euros or the same amount, but nope, its even higher, at 2.09 euros!! That is 2.36 dollars, absurd! I refuse to pay these overpriced purchases. jamesyang please fix this. And it goes worse if you check other purchases, Spartacus is 9.99 euro, that is $11.3 instead of the $8.99 it is offered for, that is playing over 25% more for the same content. This REALLY triggers me.

This REALLY triggers me. I am sure it is all because of Trump. Those prices were probably an important part of his deal with China

The prices in the US aren't 1.99$ With Taxes included, they are 2.12$
In Europe (and pretty much everywhere) taxes are already included in the base price.
Of course 2.12 dollars is still €1.88 and not 2.09.
However you need to realise that not Easytech, but Google decides the conversion rate. Easytech simply gives a price to Google, and then Google converts the prices.
There are 180 currencies in the world. From small ones as the Danish Krone to big ones such as the Euro and the US-Dollar.
It would honestly take a day-job from Easytech to decide all prices, even if they were allowed to manualy appoint prices for each region (which they aren't).

it may be a few things the taxes in the europe may be higher because most european countries are social-democratic and therefore use more money for government services that are paid with tax, number 2: easytech thinks that europeans pay more for it because they are used to it to buy more expensive products. this does not apply to the whole of europe. these are reasons I can think of, but there are certainly more.

Problem is when you click one, price changes to euro and increases further (generals increase by another euro for example), which heavily raises the real price compared to the price shown. Which are your real prices? I posted Spartacus previously on this thread for reference.

This REALLY triggers me. In the UK a Euromillions ticket is £2.50, in France it is €2.50. The moral being: you win some you lose some, or life is unfair

Then... why am I seeing it on $ and with wrong numbers?
