    Default Regarding plat purchasing i noticed this and its kinda interesting to me atleast lol

    If you use itunes cards there is no tax on any in-app purchases. if you use a credit card of any sort there is tax because appl has to pay a merchant fee. I thought this was sorta interesting, but anyways thats why most of you pay more for your plat then you actually have to.., :P so a route around tax is to use itunes cards and not credit cards lol. Sorry if this is a useless thread i thought it was worth pointing out, so dont judge me lol. And there is two examples below thanks to piosidon for pic of his purchase receipt and my purchase reciept lol.

    Edit: my email is hooked up via my android device and i use ipod to buy plat reason why my pic looks diffrent than his incase any of you thought i was using android market

    Edit#2: my dad said i can depend on where you live aswell and the riegonal laws aswell so someone in new york can have a $2 tax and me here in california doesnt have any tax at all.

    Yes, Apple is ripping you off for charging you MANDATORY state/local tax which was set up by the STATE, not Apple, boo on you Apple.


    The tax amount varies based on where you live. For example, tax is 4.712% for me
