The 30% tax

[FizzyElf]

So I have been looking around at a lot of the premium vehicles in this game to see which ones are actually decent for their price but I noticed something odd, I keep reading on the forum that you need to buy from the gaijin store as steam has a 30% tax added onto the price but there is no difference in prices that I can see. The KA-50 is the same price on steam as on gaijins store, buying GE doesn't seem to change price on either store and even the stuff that comes with these vehicles doesn't seem to change. Where is the 30% tax? even when I attempt to buy this stuff the price doesn't suddenly change.

If you buy the like 25$ or whatever packs and up, you pay less for the same amount of GE as you do through steam.

Interesting, how about buying through Gaijin Store but using the "pay via Steam" option?

Are you in Europe? I don't think it applies within the EEA.

Basically I notice if you buy off the steam version of the client, GE is way higher than off the WT website.

The packs seem to be the same off of steam though.

Yeah the packs are the same price but if I try to order pure GE it doesn't charge me any extra, at least I don't think t does, 5000 GE is 33$ with steam and on the Gaijin web store though I am not getting the 25% off sale right now which the store is getting.

30% "Tax" is on GE purchases.
