ha! can they actually get away with that! would be classic if no-one actually went out & bought one the day of release until the price came down. obviously that wudnt happen though as we love to get ripped off in this country.

The only logical reason I can see for that price is the electronic rubbish tax. ANd even that I don't think is 5%.
