Are the currency prices behind for this as was looking at buying a couple of things but looks like prices are higher than normal currency conversion.

Price from $ to £ is about 16% higher than the current rate. So $20 pack goes from about £15 to £17.47. Not bothered on a couple of % but that seems really high and no idea if they are just behind the current rates.

Just noticed the same myself - not sure why but when I select to pay via PayPal in Dollars rather than Pounds is much closer to the "correct" value (although still a little higher than it should be with the current exchange rate).

Maybe Xsolla charges an additional currency exchange fee.

I bought MC today and noticed the same thing, I got wayyyy overcharged when using £, but was very very slightly under-charged for using euro, so I would recommend doing the same

There have been at least three occasions in the last two years I've wanted to spend between £10 and £30 on this franchise and the cost has simply been too much to warrant paying.

But if whales wanna pay... *shrug*

I'm just happy to have the servers stay online. :)
