Xbox 360 Video Game RRP: £49.99
RRP in United States: $59.99
Equivilant £: £31
I propose a change to the law.
"The law does not allow prices to be fixed and, contrary to common belief, goods are not subject to price controls." -tradingstandards.gov.uk
There is no excuse for the exploitation of the British market.
Because of regional encoding (see: http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/RegionFreeMedia/) Video Game and DVD companies can charge an higher price, knowing we have little choice but to purchase at that price.
This is manipulating the system to exploit the British citizens.
By signing this petition you can help raise the voice of democracy and fairness. We cannot allow this exploitation to continue.
The law must be changed to allow prices to be controlled for certain goods, in line with worldwide standards.
Why should we pay extra because of where we live?
Why should we be forced to accept the grip that corperations have on our economy due to outdated laws.
Let your voice be heard.
