I'm sure I could find this by googling a bit, but I wanted to make use of this nifty Ask GBAtemp feature. Does anyone know if the PlayStation Network Store has tax on purchases made from Canada? I ask because there are two DLC packs I want to buy, one costs $6.99, the other $3.99, and I am wondering if a $10 PSN card is enough.

EDIT: It appears I may have either forgotten the correct prices or miscalculated the sum when I was writing this.

Obviously, unless you already have money in there, it won't be since the total of the two DLC's is $10.98.

Found this thing below. Posting it in it's entirety as it's all relevant, even Canadian.

"Yes, there is a small tax on the PSN items. At least here in Canada, and I assume we are automatically using the US PSN store. When I bought both Stardust and Eden there was a $1 added for tax.

Basically, if the country the PSN store operates in has a sales tax, you will get charged. This tax is based on where the seller is and not where YOU live personally."

Hope it helps.
