Hi, I'm considering buying Reason 10 Upgrade for Essentials/Adapted/Limited (https://shop.propellerheads.se/product/ ... edlimited/) and the price is 99$ / 99€.
Now 99$ is cheaper, since it is about 80€, but when I'm in the check out page I see the price in euros (I live in Europe).
Is there a way to "force" it and pay in dollars?
Thank you.

If you buy direct from Propellerheads you won’t get a choice. Try somewhere like:
https://www.jrrshop.com/propellerhead-r ... ed-limited
Or

Why must the price in ph-Shop for Switzerland and Australia (the size difference it isn`t) be higher than in euro/dollar countries?
Hazard surcharge or care fee, you're just lucky you're not in North Korea or Iran at home.
That oughta show them - X this is not a political stance

Yeah unfortunately that happened to me on the Props site - expected in dollar but paid in Euro - much worse exchange rate!

it makes even sense if you buy directly on shop at the RE/VST developer. Refill dealer often has its own website with shop too, so that we don't have to pay the idiot's tax (worse exchange rate) - so not everyone does it that way!
