Pricing of OOTP9 - Please Explain

I am loath to complain about pricing because I am normally happy to pay Markus an annual fee for the fantastic game he produces, but there is something that is JUST NOT FAIR.

The email advertises a price of $24.99. When I go to the webstore it shows as 24.99 euros.

I am in Australia and the US$/A$ exchange rate is about 1.05 and for the euro is about 1.68!!!!

I recall issues last game with different pricing for non-US players, but I don't know how the webstore knew this straight away.

I am being asked to pay over a 50% premium. If this is the same issue as the last time, this is effectively a punishment for not living in the US.

WHY CAN I NOT PAY IN US$??????
