Pretty sure up until the point that they take your money they are under no obligation to sell for the given price.

Yeah, in Ireland if the price changes the consumer gets a right of refusal before the item is handed over or the service is done.

I may pick up ETS 2 or Train Simulator 2013 in the next day or two.

Very tempted, I have a wheel as well so ETS would be a bit more realistic.

I've found Train Simulator quite dull myself. ETS would be better I imagine because of the traffic/ability to turn etc.

Ya thats what I was worried about really, and the DLC is going for fairly high prices anyway and by looking at the game you'd really need the DLC as to not bore the pants off yourself.
