Not 100% true. They use different copy protection schemes, and if you want to be able to pot away your PTW disc you shal delete the EXE before installing C3C to make PTW locked to the C3C disc and not the PTW one. (Really good since the CopyProtection of PTW was so confusing anyways)

Yeah, I bought for €110 on civ3-stuff or something.....
I won't start on how much I paid for my complete civ-collection......
Sid owns me....!
I'm not hot on the cost of games in the €uro-zone, but that seems expensive for a game and two expansions. I wouldn't have to pay more than £60 at release costs, and that's about €90 tops.

sometimes I wonder if the resellers know the difference between an add-on and a basic-game....
They know. Add ons are usually in range 200 to 300 SEK while games is in range 450 to 600 SEK, and most games are around 500.
Hwevever, they don't seem to know when an addon includes the earlier add ons. (Or are just stupid to try to sell the earlier for the smae price as the later) But for Civ3 the did lower the price for PTW once C3C got out.

Costs in NZ, I gotta get Civ and PTW as a set for about $60 and then Conquests on top of that for about $60 aswell. Prices in NZ are stupid.
Where are YOU buying? I got Civ3 as soon as it was released for $95, but PtW was and still is only $55, and Conquests only $30 since release day. Now you can get Civ3 Gold for $45 or the re-release of Civ3 Vanilla for $30, so you can have the whole lot for $60..... (which is ~ 20 Pounds, 30 Euros, or somewhere like $38US).

Whew...Thought you were talking about (90) American dollars there for a second.
I paid $50 for Civ III, $20 for PTW and $30 for Conquests. I bought all of them within 30 days of their release.

PTW owners did get screwed.
I enjoyed getting screwed. err...not meant in an obscene way...anyway. Probably the best game of Civ3 I ever played was on PTW as the Mongols. I never finished the game -- in fact, I rarely play a Civ game to completion -- my downfall here was being too greedy and trying to take everyone on my continent out before they made external contacts. I eventually realized this wasn't going to happen and decided to stop...that, and managing an empire of that size -- the first time I had such a large one -- was getting tedious. I owned maybe a good 1/3 of the continent, since I eliminated both China and Japan, my immediate neighbors. I think Germany, Russia, and England were on the same continent, and maybe one other civ.
