Please get better buyers or update your stock prices.

<p>I buy regularly from Takealot. Problem is, nothing irks me more when I see a game I want to buy and then the game is almost three years old and then it's going for 747!!!! Did you know you are charging that price for a game that's almost three years old, a price that is equivalent to a NEW game??</p> <p> </p> <p>I am referring to Dark Souls II, Scholar of The First Sin on Xbox One. I remember Takealot having it for around 478 if I remember correctly, and now that I finished Dark Souls 1 (which I bought from you guys, by the way) I wanted to buy DS II only to be greeted by that appalling price tag. Other stores have this game for 500 (still too much), and the Xbox ZA store has it for 399. Seriously guys please check regularly on the Xbox site what the games are ACTUALLY valued at. And please don't come with the excuse that you only get digital copies from the Xbox store, because that excuse is more useless than an ejection seat in a helicopter. For one, digital copies are always priced right on the PSN and XBox stores according to the value. Secondly, physical copies don't mean ANYTHING because you still have to install the game with corresponding updates same as the digital copy. In essence, They are both the same because at the end of the day a game is one thing; a license to use the corresponding software.</p> <p> </p> <p>Please update your prices, almost 800 for an old game is truly sad and unlike the Takealot I know and love. If you can't beat the prices of the xbox store, at least match them. Trust me you will get more sales.</p>
