    I may have or may not have switched time zones to get a route early (I didn’t get it In the end until my actual time) but I noticed the routes cost more in Australia than they do In the U.K., it was the equivalent of £29 instead of £24.99

    I was wondering how this is?

    It can vary country by country. In some countries there are digital sales taxes which may be the case with Australia.Buying through Steam also has significant pricing differences. Here in Colombia where I live the Steam prices for TSW products are much lower than the US and UK prices. That probably reflects Colombians having much less disposable income or the games having far less interest than they do in the US or Europe. It is true for other games and providers as well. So for example Aerosoft flight simulator software is much cheaper on the local Steam than other sources.

    Thanks for reply, I had a feeling it would be Tax or Demand
