May be an idea to get in there now, guys, even if you buy cheap yearly subs online.

Apparently, the reason that the 3rd party code sellers are able to undercut the RRP is because they import the cards in bulk from the USA... and of course, the yearly subscription price is going up in the USA, even though it isn't here.

Someone on BXB has said that live-codes.com (one of the sites which sells codes) has already emailed its customers to warn them that the US price hike will have a ripple effect over here...
