That is ridiculous, the economy is already bad enough, it is like adding insult to injury. I guess this will just mean that there will be more free time for the Argentinian youth to do other things, which I can't say isn't entirely a bad thing.

So this is how they will make up for their loss for selling it for $400 everywhere else, use the Argentinians. It was so simple

Chloe_xD What $1,137 ? I could get 3 ps4's for that where I am from (uk) x


Not far off as I stated earlier if people bought it from the UK it would only cost around 50 to get it sipped to them and they can do that as they aren't region locked and even if they get caught for Duty it would only be another 50 to pay saving around 260 GBP.
