Founders Edition Pricing on Origin Client

Hi there,


I've been wanting to get the Founders Edition on the Origin client as it's been advertised everywhere on sites I'm seeing as $29.99USD, however in the client I'm only getting $39.95USD.

Has the price already gone up to retail price in the client already or is there an error in pricing on their site? The same is showing on their browser store.


I'm located in New Zealand.


Cheers,

Adam

    Apologies for the delay, the pricing was in NZD, sorry about the confusion.

    Isn't it because of the exchange rate? Like in Canada, the game is $40 while in the U.S. it's $30.

    I'm pretty sure the store is in USD within New Zealand so that wouldn't make sense.


    Can anyone confirm this?

    @EA_David The price is still wrong in any store, for example in Europe, it says starting at 29.99 euros, but in fact, the cheapest one , which is standard edition is 39.99, so a price fix indeed would be in order, thank you.

    @KrudeGaming Hey, when was this pic taken? Was this on the webpage or the Origin app? If it's still showing the incorrect price on the Origin website can you grab the URL for the page?

    Checking the app and site on my end the prices are correct, but of course we want to make sure this is right everywhere.

    @EA_David This pic was taken moments ago, an hour ago basically. This is taken on the Origin application/program that you can install/download.

    @EA_David Quick update, I restarted my Origin client, since I thought that could be of help, and the price is now perfect, which is ''preorder at 39.99''. Sorry for misinformation!
