| Viper1 said: 300 USD = 208 Euros = 183 GBP. VAT certainly doesn't make up that difference. |
Add 20% VAT to 208 € and you get 249 € (it's more than 20% in some countries). The rest is the "rounding" I talked about, which is why the Wii launched at $250 / 250 € for example. Same with the PS3, $600 / 600 €. People are used to it.
Right now the Wii seems to cost $150 and 140 €, so the situation didn't change much since then...
