[quote name='ryanflucas']I saw this price increase coming a mile away. Everything is increasing everywhere. MSRP of a video game is $59.99, hence why they upped it to that magic price point.
What I find funny is that Amazon is charging $39.95 to mail you a 12 month card vs $49.99 to email you a 12 month code. They really need to get that sorted out.[/QUOTE]
Well the digital code they send through the e-mail is basically straight from MS digital distribution so you can't really discount it + it is for people who are impatient and need the code ASAP.
The one you receive through the mail is like any physical media in which it comes through a distributor of video games/accessories/etc. So Amazon can price these down like they do anything else.
My question is will the "Family Pack" announced awhile back be affected?
