it happened a few weeks ago but no idea why,maybe trying to bring more trades to them and they could have been losing a lot of money on new release games.

There is no such thing as overpricing. In business, you charge as much as your customer is stupid enough to pay. Just ask anyone who owns an iPhone!

Apple is over priced but they are quality products. My friend has a 32gb Ipod touch and he drops it on cement and kicks it around and it works fine, minus the crapload of scratches on the back. I want the new 64gb Ipod touch

They did it because everyone just kept creating email accounts or un-subscribing then re-subscribing to get another voucher (there was even a thread about it) they've wised up to the fact they were getting ripped off, so now they don't have to give away $15 over & over again which sucks because the EB store/s i've been too haven't had any tradebait .

I'm not debating the quality of Apple products. I LOVE my iPod...it has served me faithfully. I'm just saying that the iPhone is ridiculously overpriced.
Compare the US price with the Australian price:

"Fixed":you do know the us one is with a plan, thats not outright prices, Because te Ipod touch is $199 US the price we have is outright and actually we might even get it cheapers because most planes you get the phone for free. But the US phone planes are so much better with the Data.

Sorry about that, But anyways Yea every one like apple as a product, but people start complaining about prices because it to high i can get this somewhere else for cheaper or for computers for intance. Apple computer are well over priced but people still pay for it, Why pay $3000 when you can get the sme things on windows for half of that. people like the product the OS why not go linux its free isnt it and So much the superior OS out there, but people Dont know how to use it.
Apple now as i see it is build up on word of mouth and people are just buying the product because it "cool" Ive had problems with my Apple Products before and they replace intensely if they have ti for more than a week when you send it in. there customer support system is good, they actually also have a live Chat you can go through there website and ask for customer support there, really people prob in India but still helps. thats why there prices are high not just because they can. they also want to make a profit mind you. I love my apple products and hofully when i save up move up from a macbook pro to a mac pro but its like $5000 dont someone say now you can build one for half that.. i know that ive done that allready not the same .
