About 55$ which is about 48$ CAD.

It all comes down to PPP (Purchasing Power Parity). Exchange rate conversions are probably the best evidence of service commodities pricing in particular being a kind of Hermetic black magic trick.  I mean, if they can afford to flog the same card they're charging at a rate of 50 odd bucks in the Philippines for 20 bucks whilst somehow turning a profit out of it....yeah. It's a bit of a head scratcher. They'll no doubt have some disclaimer that it has to do with licensing fees etc but that's mostly going to be ********. Not sure how it works technically, but I suppose if they charged the price of any card at the rate of the CAD in the Phillipines the Pinoys would be priced out of buying it.

If you think that's bad, right now I can buy a large modern three acre house in Johannesburg ( with a swimming pool) for about 150k, because the Rand is worth nothing...their debt is something 65% of GDP. Not a good time to be South African in general, but especially not for white people.Getting ****loads of them Fleeing to Australia right now.

i have no idea how many filipinos buy fight pass subscriptions or ppv's but i wouldnt think it would be that many. i was actually surprised that i could continue my fight pass subscription when i got here. and the price is the same as in the US, 9.99 usd. figure that one. all though it may be geared to the large ex pat community here.

Jesus the AUD has tanked against the PHP over the last decade. Hovering around 30-1....which is still great but not Historically, even a few years ago it was 54-1.

when i came and visited in 2012 it was down to about 43-45 php per 1 usd. when i got here 2 years ago it was around 53 php per 1usd. right now its about 50.5 php per 1 usd. as long as it stays above 50 im good, if it gets below 50, eh, not so good.

I believe it's $60 @Freemoney... Of course they have that deal for new customers for $80. You get ESPN+ for a year and the PPV card. I personally can't stand the streaming ****, but I'm also a bit oldschool

Pretty cool. Better by far to live free and in paradise on a little than as a virtual indentured serf in a boring ****hole on more.  I'm looking at you Sydney residents.

You beat the game IMO. Rockin'.

@free

What I'm saying is that it should work the way WWE Network subscriptions do, if you have an active subscription, you get access to all of their content.
