(mine with tax will be 40 bucks...waait...add the 5 dollars reserve...45! Ill post the exact amount when i get it)

I haven't gotten it yet, nor did I put it on reserve...but with tax, it's probably about $40 -_- So much money for a tiny little chip

Red-The-First-I March 22nd, 2009 5:29 AM

34.99$ plus shipping (quiet much cause international shipping.. I think about 25$)

Tinhead Bruce March 22nd, 2009 5:30 AM

Lol. I'm getting mine in a couple hours, but I bought the thing about a month ago. It was $32 including tax and the reserve ^.^
Special connections and a Game Edge card at EBGames are awesome.

mStar March 22nd, 2009 5:31 AM

I'm getting mine in about 1hour 30 mins. It cost me $34.99 for the game, and about $17.99 for the guide with the 10% discount for buying both together.

Beckie March 22nd, 2009 8:36 AM

47 Canada dollars.
Yes, import. :]

I haven't got it yet though, but hopefully next week ^_^

dc_united March 22nd, 2009 8:50 AM

32 dollars with tax, although $37 with the 5 dollar reserve charge

Supreme Dirt March 22nd, 2009 8:52 AM

8%? lucky you. Here, we have 13%.

BHwolfgang March 22nd, 2009 9:09 AM

My friend's was $35, plus tax.

revelp8 March 22nd, 2009 9:11 AM

...

uhm, mine was free. :nervous:

Yamikarasu March 22nd, 2009 9:12 AM

About $35, plus tax, which is about 6.5% for me. I also bought the guide along with the game for about $17.

On an unrelated note, I have officially posted one time for every Pokemon from Bulbasaur to Arceus.

"Shadow Lugia" March 22nd, 2009 9:27 AM

About $33 with tax, plus the $5 deposit.

xMeowthz March 22nd, 2009 10:55 AM

29.99 I reserved it and bought it!

Zennerick March 22nd, 2009 11:17 AM

For those who reserved it for $5.00, the total price is subtracted by $5.00 to be a final sum of $35.00 plus tax.

Ice_Emperor March 22nd, 2009 11:21 AM

$34.99 + 7% Sales Tax = 37.44

The rate of tax varies from each state. For example, you may live in Florida (according to your 'location');
Florida has a tax rate of 7%. In California, the tax rate is 11.5% as of 2007. We have it worse!

Curse you, Arnold Schwarzenegger!

Neutrino March 22nd, 2009 11:32 AM

Well, I don't have it quite yet, but I'd imagine it'd be around £29.99 , like usual XP

The Fallen March 22nd, 2009 11:36 AM

Wow, Pokémon games are getting expensive. I may have to hold off on buying Platinum.

Karonte March 22nd, 2009 11:36 AM

Well it's gunna be the same price as D/P when they came out so......24-27 euro ^^ (People here hate cents :P)

Gymnotide March 22nd, 2009 11:37 AM
