I live in new york and I wanna order kof 2001 us version through ncs but they are going to charge me state tax. Tax is like 23 bones. god I hate living in new york.

Chairman Kaga · Mar 3, 2002

I'll order it for you for only a $10 fee, money order please.

Tora Kouhi · Mar 3, 2002

I'd be pissed to. At least you don't live very nearby the place. Then that would really suck.

Get it mailed to a family member, and then have them mail it to you. You'll save about 15 bucks.

evil wasabi · Mar 3, 2002

i could get it for you, and send it to you, no charge

if you let me play it first

HPMAN · Mar 3, 2002

Don't make me laugh, I live in France and tax is 20%, you should feel lucky that's only 23 bucks <img src="graemlins/shame.gif" border="0" alt="[Shame]" />

damn 20%?

when I lived in new jersey their tax was like 8% which is high as shit compared to other states.

Tora Kouhi · Mar 3, 2002

California used to have 8.25% T_T. I think it's down to 8% I'm not sure but 8.25% was a killer. #-_-

BryLmoo · Mar 3, 2002

Uhm, order from Shawn?

HPMAN · Mar 3, 2002

8% ? Muahahah, not even close to us, you'll never beat our taxes !! <img src="graemlins/loco.gif" border="0" alt="[Loco]" />

Trunks384 · Mar 3, 2002

maybe I will get one of my family memeber to order it or just take the hit on the tax.

Trunks384 · Mar 3, 2002

I already asked neogeousa but they are only getting the jap version.

FeelGood · Mar 3, 2002

Not neogeousa, he's talking about <a href="http://www.neostore.com/store/comingsoon.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>, the neostore. You can preorder an English copy from there and I don't think you will be slapped with a sales tax...

Not like this is a good thing, but here is chicago, we have taxes as high as 10.5%. Can you believe that shit? I have to pay more in tax than I should tip a waitress/waiter.....whatever.......

RyoGeo · Mar 3, 2002

Hey, DJ, if you are tipping less than 10% to your wait staff, then you are a truly shitty tipper. <img src="graemlins/shame.gif" border="0" alt="[Shame]" /> 15% is the minimum you should be tipping with respectable service. Lower than that and you just end up looking like a cheap bastard.

He's mad because he's losing money. Shawn charges $50 more, he would be losing $25 more than the problem he has now you see.

Is it true that NCSX gets KOF2001 from Shawn, or is that just a lie?

Spike

FeelGood · Mar 3, 2002

Didn't know Shawn charges more. I don't give a rat's ass about AES to be honest. If it's true, do what some other guy said and have them ship to a relative out of state and have them ship it to you. They won't be hit with the $25 tax and shipping to you should only run about $5. If you don't have any out of state relatives get a trustworthy guy from the forums (ask around for one, there are a bunch out there) and see if he will order an extra then sell it to you at cost or simply give him the money and the KOF will arrive on your doorstep whenever it's released.

Either that or you can simply eat the tax to avoid all this confusing, risky shit...

LOL, DJ is stickin' it to the man...

LA is 8.25, I think (it was higher than the rest of CA to make up for Northridge). It makes tipping as easy as doubling tax.

Trunks384 · Mar 5, 2002

Thanks for the tip feels so good.

evil wasabi · Mar 5, 2002

'll still do it for free, even if you dont let me play it

im serious, ask anyone that ever bought or traded with me, i always ship free

and for the record. NJ sales tax is 6% (2% in low-income areas) which is why alot of people from ny shop in nj

nj sales tax is pretty low

Robert · Mar 5, 2002

En france, on a pas de jeux rares mais on a des taxes, çà marche aussi.

7zark7 · Mar 5, 2002

The real problem with the california tax is many .com eletronic sites are based out of CA. Try and get a $3000 computer from outpost and your looking at close to $300 in taxes. gah! Still 20% on every game purcahse from ncsx would definitly reduce my game intake a bit.
