So, my friend was 2 cents short of buying Links Awakening DX. To my disappointment, he explained that when you use a credit card, you have to buy a certain amount of money (5$, 10$, etc.) So he said "I don't feel like spending another 5$ just to get 2 extra cents to buy this game." I got off the phone with him, and he called me a while later telling me the following, which I think is a little funny:
Apparently, it's easy as fuck to get out of paying the tax prices (if you live in a place with high taxes). We live in Quebec, and Links Awakening being 5.99 came to 6.84 with taxes. He simply changed his province to Alberta, just for fun, and lo and behold; The game came to only 6.29 with taxes. He managed to buy the game, and is now playing it. Now I'm not sure what could come of this, maybe it could be bad, or maybe it's just something that was over-looked. Either way, we both found it kind of funny how cheap everything came out in the end, haha.
Only posting this in case anyone wants to give this a shot, OR just for people to know, haha.
