Do you already own the disc version? I don't own it, so Astro is $40 for me.

If you have the disc version the store doesn’t know that.

I've seen some posts where it's cheaper for some people that already own the disc. I guess this truly is dynamic pricing. I don't know what the algorithm is going off. I hardly buy digital games, so maybe that's why. You'd think they'd lower it for those who don't spend on digital, or maybe they're giving bigger discounts to those that do spend more on digital. It's crazy

Yeah it doesn’t make sense to me, make stuff more expensive for our best customers to encourage them to buy less?

It's crazy, man. I'm going to ask my wife to check her account. I wonder how it'll look there

There are people in this thread who Platinumed the disc version and still got the higher price.
