I think GOG only does USD. Gamersgate uses some of those fancy Es, though.

Am I to assume someone is waiting for me to make a tasteless comment about the thread title?

Yeah, I thought so. :D

NEVER APOLOGISE FOR THIS
I'm also from the UK and been here since June. It's always been in USD for me. This is a bit annoying because, what with bank charges and exchange rates it can be a bit awkward to estimate how much a game actually costs.

it might be worth picking an answer at random so this topic gets marked as "solved".
The pricing here has, until now, always been done in USD ($). They are now fiddling about with regional currencies, but I would not expect that to be working properly until at least late September knowing GOG.
You do though still pay in GBP (£) when you buy from this site. It is just your bank / PayPal will do all the converting of $ -> £ for you and charge you a transaction fee.
So in a way the regional pricing may work-out to be a good thing for those buying in from outside the USA.

If you had a GOG account before and bought games via that then you can still use the installers to reinstall a game. Unlike Steam games, the ones here are DRM-free, so they can be installed on any computer you own, as often as you would like without issue.
I would suggest that you look into finding the account details you had before though, as you cannot transfer games across here. It states that in your TOS.
