Lightspeed bundles pricing varies greatly depending on location

So in the US you can buy the new bundles for 10 and 20 dollars. In Spain, and I assume the rest of Europe, the Raddus and Starkiller packs cost 65€!! Wtf? Cause European salaries are soooo high compared to salaries in the US? It’s the other way around. How did you come up with this?

    $79 CAD for SK Pack, $13 CAD for BB 8, and other Rey pack and $27CAD for Raddus pack in Canada. Think it is mostly due to exchange rates at least in Canada.

    The international pricing isn't set by CG. They give the price in USD. It's Apple/Google that then applies an exchange rate.

    Yeah, it's the exchange rate. We get hit with it on the conquest pass and other stuff too unfortunately.

    Still a pretty sweet deal.

    65€ is not 20$ by a long shot. Whoever is responsible it’s a serious rip-off outside USA.
  • Yeah exchange rates are a bit of a shame. Slight correction for the CDN thou, it's 69.99 for SK pack. The 10$ packs are 13.99 and the Raddus pack is 27.99.

    Perhaps there's an argument that the SK pack isn't worth it compared to the others but it's still an amazing deal compared to anything else we'd normally see.
