Pricelist Ambitions in Holland
« on: June 01, 2010, 05:20:01 PM »
Hi fellow members,

For all the people wo want to know how much Ambitions will cost in the stores in Holland, I have put a list together with gathered information found on the internet about how cheap, or expensive some stores will sell the game. Because, as the real Dutchman I am, I will buy the game as cheap as possible. After all, it isn't without a reason that we are globaly very known for our provident and thrifty nature. ;)

Central Point.nl:      €64,26

 :o sorry, but that emoticon really sums it up. That's double (well, plus a little extra) the cheapest price you've found. That's crazy! Why would anyone buy it for that price?

I'm in the UK and courtesy of a very lovely friend and an employee of the month prize I'm hoping to get either £15 or £20 off the price of Ambitions by buying it from HMV. My friend bought me a HMV giftcard for my birthday and work got me a giftcard which can be used in a lot of shops which has either £5 or £10 on it.
Grr Argh!

It was meant to be a little sarcastic, because as you could see the first price is €29,95 at two different stores, which will make a huge difference compared to Central Point.nl. I don΄t know why the prices are so different.

Well, Leto, most Dutchmen still have the enterpreneural spirit we were so famous for in the 17th century. Although some people say I have the arrogance of a Frenchman, I also have the Dutch spirit. I'm sure you possess it too.

The prices differ because for some people Central Point is the only opportunity, but there are only a few people like that, so they make the popular games very expensive.

Okay! I'm glad then that I'm not one of them, but have stores in town to choose from. :) And I really hope you can say the same. ;)

I got the game now.
If you buy it in Bart Smith you get a nice calendar with it for free. It is in Dutch, but if some moderator is interested in uploading it to the site, I can make some time in the weekend to make it digital.
You get it by Bart Smith indeed for 29,95.

I already did!  :D They disapointed me though, they normally get it delivered on it's release day, so the release day for the UK was yesterday. So where is my game?  ;)
