I dont understand its like the UK market dosent matter to them.. so they enjoy ripping us off. Its so stupid. But then again here in britain we pay too much for everything...

It's not just the UK market mate...Australia is exactly the same. Hence the reason I said PAL

 

[Pat123]

Ahhh i never knew aus was PAL ... its silly... why cant we get the cheap prices for a change!!!!

I'd defo buy one of the drives if we got the same deal the US is getting.
