[quote name='Nukkus']Well gee let's see, it's an unauthorized site that is selling a CODE, NOT an actual card from Microsoft. Do the math. I'm not about to risk losing all my hard earned gamerscore and dozens of XBLA games to save a few bucks on some unknown website. And yes, there is tax. If you got a card tax free then there was some sort of fluke there.[/QUOTE]
Oh, so it is just an opinion ... thanks, that's all I wanted to know. If you get proof, please post a link.
Regarding the no tax comment, most gold or point cards that are activated at the register are now treated as gift cards. As such, there is no tax on them. If the retailer is charging it, go somewhere else ... as far as I know, Futureshop and Walmart both sell those items with no tax.
