Buying cosmetics and getting jumpscared by taxes

[abstract vigil]

make a option that let's u see how much something costs with taxes so that ppl alr know how much they will spend

[languid canyon]

i think it already shows that in the tebex purchase menu

[abstract vigil]

only at the checkouts tho it's annoying

Use a vpn and a random address from a different country to pay less taxes

Canada is the lowest I know

You get a random Canada address and put it in

And use a canadian vpn

Works for all of tibex mainly if you are not in the is already

[lapis solstice]

what are you on about

using a different country doesn’t do anything as you’d have to pay in their local currency which would work out more than using your own bc of conversion fees

and if you really wanted lower taxes, you’d go to the middle east where they have a 0% tax rate

Idk bro i have been saving money like that so i am just sharing

[lapis solstice]

you have no idea what you’re on about

[misty arrow]

I don’t understand what are you trying to say

[misty arrow]

Hypixel gold in my country is 12 usd using canadian vpn and address its 10 usd depending on the country it might be 9.80 to 14 usd

Talking from personal experience

[lapis solstice]

but the fees such as converting currency and tax are different on checkout so while it SEEMS cheaper, if you’re paying tax or paying fees to convert, you’re most likely paying more than if you paid in your local currency

[misty arrow]

No this is not true

Especially for hypixel gold

You always pay in usd no matter the country

So you just end up paying less usd

The 1-3% convention rate is there no matter what

[lapis solstice]

i forget Americans are self centred, other countries pay the fee as they don’t use US dollars. If you use your local currency, tebex covers the fee. Changing your currency to another costs money as you’re converting from X -> USD -> Y -> USD

it’s easier to put some youtubers name and get 5% off the total

[wooden lichen]

They are Bulgarian just saying.

[lapis solstice]

Then they should know from lev/euro to usd and having additional conversions increase the price 😭

Hypixel does regional pricing, Lunar doesn’t so idek how Hypixel gold came in to this conversation

[wooden lichen]

I honestly can’t even make a suggestion cuz I never have used lunar but this sounds sensible

[misty arrow]

12- 5% is 11.40 if i use a vpn its 10 usd

[wooden lichen]

Yes but lunar doesn’t have that feature, Hypixel uses only usd, lunar uses depending on where you are so it will always be the same, you may save a cent from there and now but it doesn’t use the same system as Hypixel that’s what he’s trying to say
