Corsair really are the worst for ripping off UK customers with their $-£ exchange rate prices.
The UK consumer isn't there to keep you in free pizza's, big George.
I hate the 'uk tax' as much as the next person but I wouldn't exactly say that's the case here.Quote:

I wouldn't say a £2 markup to cover exchange rate fluctuation, transportation and any other 'UK fees' they may incur as being an excessive markup.
US price doesn't include our 20% VAT (Americans pay sales tax at the checkout as it varies from state to state.Quote:

I fail to see how this priced chassis is a rip off.. cos it's just not. It's spot on value and the exchange rate makes total sense when VAT is sorted.
Not bad, but not good enough for me
