Agreed, that sounds pretty much like a bug. If it isn't, that would be a pretty great incentive to buy the game here and now, even for cheapskates. ;)
For the UK, you get 2 x $5.99 codes per Original Sin and the Source Hunter DLC.
Hello,
I'm from Belgium and just bought the main game.

I got 2 gift codes: 1 9.99$ and 1 5.99$.

I did not buy the DLC yet but if I get the equivalent in gift codes as I read here for Denmark and Sweden I will certainly do it.

So can someone confirm if Belgium receives the same gift codes (=16$ worth) for the DLC ?

Thanks.

JudasIscariot: Regarding the Fair Price Package, I'll have to double check the details regarding codes as in exactly how many you'll get but the gist of the FPP is that you get codes to make up the difference as to how much you are being charged vs. the USD price.

PaterAlf: Any infos when you will finally introduce store credits to make up the difference on regional priced games? It's a little annoying that you can't combine gift codes and that you can't use them for discounted games.
All I know at this time is that we are working on it but I have no ETA as to when the store credits will be implemented. Sorry :(

That seems to be a recurring theme with the GOG site. Maybe I'm being too nitpicky, I don't know...

Is there some way of knowing what exactly the fair price package contains of in one's region, prior to buying? And can you confirm that it's not a bug that some get two gift codes for buying the $10 DLC?

Lillesort131: Two with the base game, and two more with the DLC.

Namur: Thank You.

GOG's usually pretty generous but 16$ worth of codes to compensate a 3.6$ difference on the DLC seems like a screw up.
Well, they're buying the game full priced, which puts GOG higher up on the profit margin, plus 16 to 3,6 is about 80% difference, and a pretty by-the-books discount in regards to the recent sales.

No problem, I can wait. Thank you for the answer.

39.99€ is $54.50. Subtract $15.98 is $38.52
£29.99 is $51.35. Subtract $12 is $39.65

Rip-off Britain again, we get to pay $1 more :p I was hoping the US price would be $30. Oh well.

Guess I'm waiting for the sales... or the Galaxy launch party deals (which I'm speculating will be a thing :p)

I couldn't resist. :) I really like the Divinity games. :D
It's been a while since I've spent so much money on a single game, and at launch (sort of)!. Now, I have to figure out what to cut to make up the shortfall - coffee? Chocolate? Other games? Hmmm... *Ponders and calculates*

How exactly is it a rip-off? If you accept the gift code as "real money", you get the game $0.30 cheaper as the US buyers.

Them rich Euros and 'Mericans don't realise how we have to save every penny (cent) here in the UK.

If I bought this game at full price, I'd have to starve myself for a week, as well as turn off my fridge and water heater, and wash all me clothes in the stream. Which I'd have to walk to, since I'd would nae be able to afford to fill up me car with gas neither.

Ach, the life of a UK gamer is a hard one.

Currently, I'm on medication that has caused my appetite to disappear. So, making an effort means I eat one meal a day. Now the previous medication I was on caused me to stuff my face as if I was trying to win a prize at an all-you-can-eat buffet, so I've got a bit of weight to lose to be in a healthy bracket again.
Which means, saving the price of lunch so that it will go to the retrospective cost of Original Sin. Win-win.
(For now, at least.) :)

I think you have misunderstood :)

The "Rip-off" in "Rip-off Britain" is an adjective not a verb ;) It's a joke amongst us Brits that everything is more expensive than it should be / we'd like it to be. Esp compared to the US! Anyway, we like to complain about prices. It's what we do.

Lillesort131: I paid 39.99 euros, and got a $9.99 and a $5.99 gift code.
Update: The DLC cost €9.99, and I also got both a $9.99 and a $5.99 gift code.
Can someone confirm if Belgians get the same gifts for the DLC ? ;)

Thanks.
