Snesboy said: I've never paid tax on anything I've purchased online or digitally. When buying games off of the Wii Virtual Console, there was no tax. Amazon and Newegg purchases aren't taxed either. I live in Michigan. If I go to the store and buy a toaster, it's 6% sales tax. No tax on food though. |
Newegg charges sales tax though only if you are in California, I believe. They are based in Southern California so Californians, such as myself, get charged tax when ordering from them.
Oh and I agree with you about the prices here in Japan. I paid 700 points for Pushmo (hiku-osu) on the e-shop and it cost me 700 points (700 yen). Tax is already included I guess. No muss, no fuss!
