EU Map Pricing

First of all I know this is Destinator setting the price NOT CF for the maps...... I was hoping for some reduction in the map prices this time out but again we in the EU seem to get stung ( its the way it is with every thing at the mo ).

If it had been $275 like the others that would have been more fair but for some reason Destinator like a hi price on EU maps.

Its not put me off but it will have to wait just that little bit longer how ever David it would be intresting to see why ( if you can ask them ) they are intent on doing this to us over here.

PS Are you doing coupons again this time at all ?

PPS Sorry for the winge.....

the EU maps just include a lot of countries and therefore costs more... they also are not giving us, currently, good pricing on single regions, which makes it not worth setting at this point...

Lets hope EU / UK don’t get ripped off this time, not to go over ground but the fact that the EU / UK maps have several countries should not matter especially when you can buy North America maps cheaper, some of the states if not all, cover a larger area than some countries in the EU.

It would be good if it was possible to buy just the country you need, as for me and I’m sure a few others will only require UK/Ireland maps and end up removing the rest of the maps which makes it even more expensive to purchase, I am aware that some people who purchase the North America Maps may only use part of the maps supplied.

Sorry for going on about this but I’m fed up with being ripped off for living on this side of the pond.

I know the pricing of the maps has NOTHING to do with Centrafuse so please do not take this uncontrollable rant personal guys.

I would suggest, before you agree a price for the 2.0 maps, ask Navigator if it is possible to supply the maps per country and per state if that would help the users from America and Australia (sorry if i forget anyone else, it is not intentional). You get the idea, maps broke down to each country / state so the price can be lower.

Ok that’s enough for today I think, I'll go back to my corner and keep quiet now.
