Just say you moved here from overseas, thus the 2 different keys from 2 countries...can't argue with that Wink
can you prove it ?, I tried the same thing on Audible and it did not fly.
worth a try though.
They should just let you pay the difference and be done rather than pissing everyone off

Really Cordless? EA made over 4 billion dollars last financial year, 84% of which comes from console games and only 10% comes from pc games. You can't seriously believe that they come up with such convoluted schemes to get a few more sales. These guys are the biggest game in town, they aim for millions of sales, not a couple of hundred. Just look at the whole premium thing, they punch out 20 more maps, no extra developing, and make millions of sales that they don't even have to physically package.

Seems more likely the original cd was produced by an opportunist with a keygen. Eject should take it up with the place that sold him the first key.

I was going to say that's more due to the fact that EA makes bad games which contards fork out their cash for, while PC gamers are more discerning and don't play bad games; but the reality is: that 80% of revenue from consoles is split between Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, PS2, PSP, Nintendo DS and mobile phone games. So the 10% isn't so insignificant (it's actually pretty even with Xbox revenues if you look at their financial reports).

In any case there's no reason to charge up to a 50% premium for a digital product that costs nothing more to sell in Australia than it does in US/UK. Apart from corporate greed of course.

Lately I've been buying all my games from greenmangaming or game.co.uk because fuck paying the australia tax; recent example was Dark Souls, $70USD on Steam but $45USD from greenmangaming. Exact same game. Literally no possible way they can justify their price gouging.


If they want to stop people buying games from other regions, they should address the problem and get rid of the price disparity; then there will be no reason for people to do it.

I dont think it has anything to do where premium was purchased as it was through ea and people can move so I dunno lol. But yeah, it sucks that I cant even just buy premium again or something Sad Looks like ill have to preorder that BF3 Premium Edition. The original was a cheapskate but I got premium legit and got premium banned lol. But ah well. If anyone sees BF3 for say under $20 then let me know haha. I know the PE is going to be $70 so thats not so bad I guess. But means I spent more Sad God damn russians lol
