With £1 = $1.9 and 17.5% VAT (correct for UK I believe), £300 was $485 which was admittedly quite higher than USA was paying. Currencies have gone all over the map for the past few years (especially the past year) so it's understandable that companies don't adjust prices all the time.

I guess the point is, us Europeans aren't being nearly as much ripped off as before.

 

UK is 17.5% one of the lowest oddly. And you are right, no where near as ripped off but this is because of the failing world ecomony, this will recover, it's just where the $to Euro/£ will sit after it. Then again, when the PS3 was released (March '07), the exchange rate was £1-$1.96, it remained around that for over a year, then now has only slumped.
