Best way to get Dark Souls DLC

[silverwolf0]

I want to get the new Artorias DLC for Dark Souls, but after all these years of owning a PS3 (I had a phat one that got stolen from my apartment and bought a slim one later on), I have never bought anything from the store or inputted my CC info. Then there was that infamous PSN hacking and I am definitely even more cautious to link my CC to anything Sony related. Their PSN website and billing website are separate so it makes it even more confusing. I've gotten my CC stolen twice already online (one from the infamous monoprice hack, don't remember the other one) so am very wary of using my CC online. Whenever possible, I use my paypal account, which hasn't failed me yet after all these years. Sadly, I do not see a paypal option when I try to add funds to my wallet.

Would it be okay to add my CC just to make that one $14.99 purchase for the DLC, then quickly delete it? The thought of my CC even being remotely in contact with a Sony server already gives me chills. And I can't really trust it to be deleted fully. The other route would be a $20 PSN card. In true CAG fashion, this concerns me, since that means I will have wasted $5 extra because there is no $15 PSN card to my knowledge, and this is literally the only DLC I will ever buy probably. I also have no idea how tax works on the PSN store. A $16.50 PSN would probably cover it, if that ever existed.

So what should I do?

if ur worried about ur card getting stolen get a pre paid CC (it might cost a little more, but atleast you dont have worry about it getting stolen) and then buy the dlc and then just use up the rest of the money on something else if u want

Or if you don't want to go to a store to purchase a PSN card, you can buy a code to input over amazon and they will email it to you.

Depending on your region, PSN may not charge you sales tax in which case you would have $5.01 left over. Every once in awhile they'll have a sale and items will be down around the $5, or if you don't want to wait, Infamous: Festival of Blood is on sale currently for $4.99. It is standalone DLC (don't need to have Infamous 2 to play) which is kinda an alternate universe take in which Cole is turned into a vampire.
