Customers can influence the price on the demand side by just refusing to get screwed. If you consider something to expensive simply just don't buy it. That equals less demand and business will have to drop their price to make sales. Buying something means you agree with the price and if you agree with the price you are not getting screwed.Unless you have a definitive way of getting un-screwed from all the places that we are getting screwed - i.e. everywhere, I don't see the use.
It's supply vs. demand, as long as they're making money, they'll charge what they feel they can, regardless of exchange rate fluctiations.
To avoid getting fleeced, the rest of us look at other options, where we may get more value for money. He can check out WootWare, Loot, Esquire, for example.
I have been putting off upgrading my PC for a year already because I consider the current prices of components silly. So now I'm playing older games and I found different forms of entertainment.
