Gamestop Brawl Pricing

[Deejay]

I just got back from the Gamestop that I preordered brawl at, and I just noticed that my receipt says the game costs $52.99, but when I go to Gamestop.com it says Brawl costs $49.99?

Does anyone else's receipt say $52.99?

[Julian]

..tax?

[Akiyama]

Here in Alabama, tax on games that are 49.99 usually run around $53.60ish.

[Deejay]

The price says $52.99 before the tax is even calculated on my receipt. It says 52.99+6% FL tx which was another dollar and change.

I'm just not trying to get ripped off here, cause I can wait a day and just buy the game at Wal-Mart for 3 dollars cheaper.

[Dmitry]

That's odd. Both the stores I work at have it priced at $49.99 which the 6% puts at $52.99. I would bring it up with them when you get back.

[XxSlusherxx]

there is no tax on a pre-order since your not buying anything really, therefore some stores will fudge the price so that you don't have to pay tax when you get there.

[izembo]

that's basically it, you're tax is added on the preorder. you'd pay the exactly 52.99, nothing more when you pick it up.

I don't think you guys are getting what i'm saying.

I payed 52.99 for the game, plus an extra 1.20 for tax. The game costed me 54.19.

I got my copy of for only 10 bucks since I turned in two wii games that I haven't played in over 6 months.

Best ten bucks I've ever spent

You pay 2% tax? My heart bleeds for you.

lol

I'm just confuzzled.

[Rex]

does florida have like 8% state tax by chance? cause 49.99 + 8% or so would be in the realm of 54 bucks and maybe gamestop just fudged the receipt

[izembo]

you might have bought it somewhere that has an additional 2% local tax. all gamestops sells products for the exact same price, and i can guarantee you that the game is selling for 49.99

[Norelco]

Sounds like they charged you the "brother" tax.

[Remyo]

I've never had to pay sales tax in FL.

[Sixtail]

I've never had to pay sales tax in FL.

Lies. It's automatically added to non-food sales.

[Dmitry]

Mine was $10.

working at EB games (gamestop) in texas, brawl is: $$49.99 on shelf + 8.25% tax = $$54.11 outright
