Global game cost

Just wondering if all costs are equal around the globe? I notice that a lot of the PVP cashers seem to be from South America, so I wondered if the cost was a lot cheaper for them vs. say North America.

 

Yeah, im pretty sure its cheaper in the other areas of the world.

 

Game costs such as premium and purchasing ander is based on a formula that uses several factors including cost of living, gross domestic product and other factors that determine general wealth. It changes from country to country.

 

I am from Saouth America so maybe i can say. 6 months ago it used to be very cheap. About 3 months ago everything doubled the price as i see that the amount of South American players also grow. For example today 1 month premium costs me 21,50. Our dollar worths today 2,59 so today a 1 month premium service would cost 8,3 american dollars. I think a lot of south american players buy a lot of anders because they have the chance to pay with mobile credits small ammounts of anders (1010 or 1350) for 3 / 4,00 in our currency - Brasil). the other packages of anders are really different and less accessible for most of them. Also the biggest anders package costs us 200,00 , so its about 77,22 dollars. Now i cant say the prices for americans neither european ppl.
Hope it helps

 

In the USA, one month of premium is $12.49 (USD) so something that converts to $8.3 USD for Brazil is not unreasonable; I think 24,000 Anders is $31.49, 48,000 Anders is 61.99 and 114,000 Anders is $124.99, and my guess is your 77.22 package is the 114,000 Ander package.

 

And as he pointed out, that was after the prices doubled.... so it used to be about $35-$40 for them to buy the largest andermant packages. So to answer your question, yes, the prices are different which is why the big P2Ps from some other countries are even more stacked than the big P2Ps in places like the US or Europe.

 

Sadly....It's all on Agathon!!!!! D:

 

Wasn't going to say it, but yea.

 

It gets insane over here. Yes, it might be a lot cheaper, but still a bit of money spent on pixels.

 

Definitely cheaper than SA. My buddy was in Chile when he created his accounts in Agathon/Heredur and the price is 1/3 of the pricing I see on my own account. Good for him if he's paying for himself, not so much if he wants to gift me. Then again, his account won't accept Subway cards as form of payment (the currency I use since I get a free 6" sub with each $25 reload at my local store).

 

Poland
premium 40 PLZ = about 14 USA dollars.
Czech and Russ about half of this price.
UE about 10 euros.
In my country i don't know why but are higest prices for all options of games and we where asked BP about those many times but they ignored us.

 

I think DSO must have same price for every one. What changes is dollar conversions , third part payment services that for sure grabs some money and also in some countries some taxes are lower than the others. So in the end its impossible to have the same value , since dollar has a different value and countries have different taxes for services like DSO offers. No way to be the same.

 

Nope. Both my gaming partner-in-crime and I are Canadian, so the payment shows in CAD. However, when he created his account in Chile (he was there during the summer to visit family) somehow DSO detected that and he was given SA rates. He still pays SA rates even being back in Canada and we shake our heads when we both log in to compare rates against one another.
