ToB is finally here in Ireland, at a cut price £24.99

I say cut price cause if I buy it I feel like cutting my wrists (course if I don't I'll feel like doing the same). Please note that the full price of a game over here is £34.99.

My point is that they are charging me near full price (since many full games are 30.99 or even 24.99) for a one disk expansion. It seems rather a lot, especially if you consider that this is something that the company has probably held in reseve for the express purpose of milking fans of the game. I can't help but feel that TOB was always there, waiting to be released to screw the public. I can't shake the suspicion that ToB could easily have been included in Baldur's 2 but sales and marketing advised the company to sit on the conclusion to ensure that further profit would be extracted. Anyone else think that the expansion,, regardless of its quality came out quickly and at great expense?
