Has anyone from the UK used this site?

I was just wondering the prices of the mp3's as theyre in american dollars.

Would a $1.50 track cost around £0.70, or do they charge £1.50 per track?

Thanks, Kev Coll

Exchange Rates


I see your logic but it's not as stupid as it actually sounds. A lot of companies on the net will charge in EURO but then boost the price if someone orders in pound sterling. Don't think beatport does though as they charge in dollars.

what im saying is, all the UK sites sell mp3's for £1.50. Im wondering if they'll boost the price up to that.

they don't, at least not for me (portugal-euro)

It would probably be fraudulent to charge a higher price, but if you're unsure you probably could have emailed them to make sure.

Beatport is good for house but their trance is lacking IMO.

That's true mate, but it's not nice knowing other people are getting it cheaper just cause they live in another country..

The prices are still low, but if others are getting it for cheaper, why tell yourself "oh well, who cares it's still relatively cheap"

I'd be interested to know whether they would charge me twice the price if i live in the uk or wheather i get an EXTREMELY good deal from the place :)

just my 2p..

haha! come on, thats how the whole world works! ;)

hehe, im just having a bad day is all. like that other mp3 thread; it just annoys me how everyone seems to be more interested in how to get quality music for nothing. if people arent willing to shell out a bit of cash, then they can't love it enough. and doing math re a few extra pence here and there is laughable imo.

you can get roughly 4-5 mp3 for 1 vinyl. thatd be good enough for me.

my 2 cents :)

yeah well too bad for you if there was a price inflation :rolleyes:

But every company in every industry does it


For example if you want to buy a pair of APC jeans ( www.apc.Fr )
they cost around 120 USD for Us/Canada
and they cost 130 EUROS for France


Mind you they both get shipped from France and are from the same company, yet the locals have to pay more for the same product.

That's so lame.
