Too Much?!
« on: August 03, 2005, 07:22:00 AM »

Don't you guys find this too much $$$ for a game that we canadians have to pay, $72.73 (converted at www.xe.com- $59.99 US = $72.7311 CAN)? That's $89.91 with the TAX (14 %)! sad.gif

I don't mind paying $415.15 for 360 with TAX (I guess that would be the basic pack at lunch), plus the extra stuff that I will have to pay extra (again, depends on the bandle I get), but for the games....I guess I will be extra careful on what I am getting (cuz this generation I just both the games for many reaseon, including "if I like it or not").

The Price For The Games Will Be 69.99$ CDN Plus Taxes. It Was The Same Thing With The First Box.

most states in the US have tax too... though I don't think any states are as high as 14% (that's what you get with free medical)

Thankfully I'm in Tax Free New Hampshire  beerchug.gif

Nope because the extra cross-border shipping costs make up for the XTRA 5 dollars these people are crying over. spearfree, grow up. Stores aren't going to sell games at 73 bucks. They are going to be sold at 69.99. Still too much? find a new hobby.
