My fellow Canadians the price of videogames is absurd

[MikelArteta]

It's like why, nothing else is priced this badly compared to us.

This is partially the reason as to why i buy digitally. Avoiding taxes.

$90 on a damn game. I remember when I can just easily roll into walmart and buy a new game for $59.98

I don't wear jerseysz, buy yeah I was in that thread. I don't buy knockoffs I buy like socks, underwears abd dress shirts

I buy mine at best buy, I got their GCU membership,when pre ordered all the new games come out to $38 before taxes,might as well make that drive to the US and pick some games up while you come for a visit

Do you need a us address?

I dont get what the smiley is for

Dont you buy cheap knock offs of everything you own? The money saved off all the fugazi stuff u bought balances it out

What are you basing this off of?

Reminds me off those days dropping $120 CAD after taxes on N64 wrestling games (Consumers Distributing the GOAT)

Might actually have to consider Canadian Amazon Prime now as all pre-orders get you 20% off, but then have to strike those savings against the Prime fee. Not sure if it will work out.

Prime is definitely worth it. Games get delivered day one. plus all the other shyt you can buy on Amazon.

20% is great, but they had some better deals at E3 on top of that.

there were games for $49.99

Titanfall was only 49.99
BF1 was only 49.99
Watch Dogs 2 only 49.99


plus all the other games were 20% off

Amazon>>>

I don't think so, but they don't verify anyways so just make one up

 

[B86]

Damn y'all really paying double retail price? Games are Only $48 here with either Best Buy or Amazon

Yeah I did the E3 deal also for BF1 and FF. Didn't need Prime for that and BF1 was delivered on release date.

I guess with Prime it's guaranteed to arrive on release day, may be the difference. But again I'd have to buy enough games to cover the cost of Prime per/month and then some to make worthwhile. Can't see myself by 2-3 games a month, lol.

ahh, I got prime student (find someone with a student email) I only pay $40/year

but once you have prime, you will buy a lot more shyt on Amazon, IMO it's worth it even for $100

the deals, plus the guaranteed FREE shipping. makes it worth it.

 

[Fatboi1]

Buying games in CA is like a damn bill

I'd only be buying AAAA 96+ Rating games.

 

[Ciggavelli]

Your shyt is worth 75% of a US dollar. What do you expect?

 

[hotbeezie]

........

 

[Rozay Oro]

93 dollars on average for a damn game, considering many of these games are made right here in Canada with sexy tax breaks it's absurd.

fukk with them indie games breh

 

[MikelArteta]

Like I said many videogame companies are centered in Canada

Your shyt is worth 75% of a US dollar. What do you expect?
