So how much is Lion going to be now?
So how much is Lion going to be now?
What does Apple Corporate has against the UK? Everything is so ****ing expensive here.
How? Current exchange rates are showing as £0.615 for US $0.99. AFAIK, Uk price has VAT included so 69p sounds about right to me.
And you really think this is Apple's fault?
Owwww and does this mean the £20.99 lion upgrade has went up in price before even coming out? lol
I remember when the iTunes music store came out and it was 99p equivalent to 99¢.. so easy come, easy go.
Switzerland: 0.99$ = 1.10Fr -> 1.00Fr
Calculated with the actual exchance rate would be:
Switzerland: 0.99$ = 1.10Fr -> 0.80Fr
So we still pay 1.20$ for an app worth 0.99$
£0.615*1.20 (20% VAT) = £0.738£0.59 is closer to £0.615 than £0.69 in my mind.
True for hardware, but as i understood it sales from iTunes are from luxembourg and carry no VAT, and sales in the US below $1 dont attract sales tax. Not sure though.
for uk and norway :hahaha, serves you right for not accepting the euro. I live in belgium, and still 0.99$ is 0.79. You are part of the european union, now embrace it's currency.
Extra 10p! WOOOT!? I'm actually slightly irritated by that. I will certainly be buying less apps I'm afraid. 59p was a comfortable price.
rhombus said:I don't see how these prices are unfair to the UK.
$0.99 (US price exclusive of taxes) = £0.6147 (UK price exclusive of taxes)
£0.6147 + VAT @ 20% = £0.73 or 73p. An actual price of 69p seems pretty fair to me.
Apple UK hardware pricing on the other hand....
Just a shame I live in the UK and £1.19 apps have gone up to £1.49
