I will trade her for my president (Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner/Argentina) any day.

A true fact is that starting from the 1st of January, VAT on "Telecommunications, broadcasting & electronic services" must be charged according to the customer, not the seller's country. Very official source.

What is still unclear to me is what VAT rate was/is being applied by Valve Europe until now. My guess is 15%, not 3%, though.

Luxembourg has been allowing major companies moving their European headquarters there tax exemptions via ad-hoc bilateral agreements which are illegal pretty much everywhere else. In fact, big companies based in Luxembourg have been netting huge profits there paying very little taxes and moving their losses to their subsidiaries across Europe, in what basically amounts to tax evasion. Google "LuxLeaks" and see what comes up.

Yes the great Orban, instead of investing EU-money wisely...he feed dubious projects, lowered company taxes and raised the VAT...at least you still can use the internet...without a pay-slot next to the PC.So i fully agree, you deserve higher wages in Hungary...it´s not only good for employees on Hungary...it also something that's good for employees in german industrie...

Expect they do 1€=$1 prices. Also this affects GOG too like it does Steam :P

yeah ... and this bundles sounds always nice, but at the end i played only 1 game from all this bundles i bought this year. And bought alot.

IG also have $1=€1 nowadays.

Unless it's different IG?

As far as I know bundles are going to be more expensive too as they're digital services or digital goods if I'm right?

As much as I hate taxes i have to pay them.I hate taxes and i hate it when they are raised but that is life,if you can not afford to buy games then imo you should not play.

I have a wishlist for a reason,for games i want but can bot get,though i have lots more i want but i can not afford.

This sale i had some money set aside i saved what i could.so i had a choice i either could get one game like Borderlands Pre for around half price and have one game,or i could buy a few older titles with huge discounts and have more then one game to play.

I ended up choosing to buy several cheaper games to have more to play.This thread seems to full of people who are unhappy with this,which is fine.

What i do fine funny though is raise taxes so now i will pirate it as that is the answer,let's not use logic which is if i can not afford it i do not buy it.

People are free to feel what they want and do what they want,but to condone stealing items because of higher taxes is just silly

I have a limited budget because i am disabled and i can not afford every game and a lot times it will be a month or two before i can get any games.

Anyhow in the end it still sucks that taxes are being raising i know how it is not to always afford games and actually sometime taxes have prevented me from getting a game because i was a few dollars short because of it.

Because all we're gonna get is higher prices, which is what they always do. Strangely enough they don't do anything against corruption in their own ranks or big players because of said corruption. They're taking easy targets to milk us for money.

How so?
