Okay this is how it will work. You ask me about the price of a product, it can be anything, in my country. I will give you the CORRECT answer to that question and then you can say what ever you want about it because your oppinion REALLY does not matter at all!
I have had people call my government all kinds of names for letting prices bee as "high" as they seem to be to you outsiders. Remember we are an island nation in the North Atlantc so we must import everything almost.
The reason for this is because people often find prices in my country high or really high and I was just wondering if this does apply to all products.
Fire away
Edit: Here you can change my currency into yours. My currency is the ISK or Icelandic Krona (Íslensk Króna) P.S. You can use whatever currency converter you wish I only found this one on altavista.com in a hurry so I don't know if it is correct or not.

Ice Cubes are more often then not FREE but it costs around 100 ISK in some places. Then again you could just go and get Ice from the garden.

You know that you're playing too much EvE Online if you think that ISK stands for Interstellar Kredits and not for Islandic Krona... -_-

I know, but I have played EvE and shall return to it next month. ;)
And at first I saw "ISK" and thought: "Huh, an EvE player?" and then, "Oh no, wait, it's the Icelandic currency." Dang CCP!
