Buying Digital Games from Xbox Store Groups

[Gemma]

Does anyone here buy digital games from the Xbox Store using a VPN to get them much cheaper from places like Argentina or Brazil?

I've seen a few listings on HotUKDeals and the games are about half the price but does the buying process work?

I've never tried myself but say, for example, you want to buy a game from the Xbox Store in Brazil.

After logging in to CDKeys change their default site currency to R$/BRL before proceeding to their secure checkout. Using PayPal's own currency conversion rates this results in Xbox BRL cards priced in the following way:

BRL 50 £5.88 (priced £7.29 in GBP)
BRL 100 £11.76 (priced £13.99 in GBP)
BRL 200 £23.53 (priced £27.99 in GBP)

Okay, this works pretty good.

Along with Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War Ultimate Edition for £35 I've bought Resident Evil VIIIage (£23) and Hitman 3 (18.50 but I also had £3 Paypal discount).

Just need to find time to play them all now!
