I was just checking the release dates of ER on Amazon.co.uk as i live in england, but thought i would just compare this and the price to the american site....woh the DVD;s are so muhc cheaper i used a currencyconvertor andthe CD's were almost half price! (OC mix2) Is this the same for most items,because i have never been to the US nor did i realise Uk prices were such a wrip off!

It's exchange rates. The reason why the American dollars coversion rate is droppnig due to the rise of the Euro, and the British Pound is staying rougly the same...its about 2:1 US-British Pounds. It's why I'm pissed because the Man U stuff I want is so expensive.

Well I know that Season 1 and 2 cost me $110 Canadian (thats roughly 50 each plus tax), and we are more expensive then the US.
Um..yeah.

If a red quark is attracted to an anti-red quark, is it a gluon or a meson?
