Can’t help but feel I’m getting stiffed here. What’s the USD equivalent like in your country? ![Screenshot_20190308-134520](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/e/1/e1947ba4a8157acb6b71b9bfbe201fffa2021e53.jpeg) ![Screenshot_20190308-134558__01](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/5/2/52d68b8bbed53fbe85e0990f4f3a8844db765969.jpeg) ---

If you buy it from steam it’s actually 7.60 GBP. Really can’t understand the difference but i’ve known about that since before introducing raids/ invasions (my last purchase)! ---

Good to know, thanks! So it’s a Google Play thing not a 505/IP2 thing ---

Your price includes VAT I bet… ---

So there’s no VAT on steam? ---

It does indeed. Does the USA price not include sales tax? ---

It does not. At least, it didn’t the last time I bought something. Edit: take heart, though. In about a month the value of the pound might plummet, and your £9 flash offer might translate to 8 bucks or less! ---

US price doesn’t include state or local tax, and we have no national sales tax. So your prices should be 20% higher just to cover VAT. ---

Was this the Droid you were looking for? ![Screenshot_20190308-011018](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/3/9/39afe7134f08893f1cf9769376ab2390236da156.jpeg) @Starlite you posted on my discord that it was only $2 for you??? ---

Nope. A$15 or US$10, depending which platform I’m on. What I meant was that I would only think it good value if it were $2. That’s partly due to restricted income at the moment, partly because I can buy an entire AAA game for $20 if I wait 12 months (roughly speaking). Ah well. I’m not the one doing their figures. 🙂
