Here in the UK we have to pay tax on everything so prices have always been high for games as well

Update: “Note from Big Fish Games, Inc.: We have identified that our system erroneously charged state sales tax on your transaction(s) between October 30 - November 1, 2019. In order to correct this error, we have issued a refund for the sales taxes incorrectly collected on those transactions.”
This is part of an e-mail I received from Big Fish re: a refund.

Huh. I would think they are supposed to be charging tax. It varies from state to state in this country and I do not believe that it is Big Fish's decision to make but rather the laws of each state.

BOGO prices aren't cheap enough for me . Don't BOGO sales make the games $6.99 apiece? I thought that was at least sometimes the price for non-club members only?

I do a lot of online shopping. Taxes are charged according to where the purchaser lives, not where the vendor is located. As far as sale prices, A BO/GO sale for members would mean $6.99 per game since games are $13.99 for members. A BO/GO at non-member prices would be $10 per game since games are $19.99 for non-members. Sometimes the percentage off sales are a better deal for non-members.
