I am surprised at the price difference aswell. My little brothers mates all pre-ordered the game for well over Ł40, my little brother didn't buy into all the rubbish about the game running out, he held his nerve and bought it for Ł26 from Sainsbury's. I could have bought it for Ł20 from Makro and that's including VAT. So if Makro were selling it for Ł20 then what price did they buy it at? And does this mean that some retailers were making nearly Ł30 gross profit on each game?

That kind of markup is unheard of in products of such high demand in todays resale market, it would normally be about Ł5 tops for such a product. And why did the developers sell it to the likes of Makro so cheap? They could have fixed the price at Ł30 and still got the same amount of sales.

Chris.
