    Also the exchange rate of currencies if you are not on the USD.

    Nexon is priced with USD up north? Hold that thought.

    No, buy all your untaxed NX now before Oct 1 and then stop.

    Of course not, ding dong. But if we buy a 50NX card we don't actually get 50NX.

    I never bought NX in the first place. So it doesn't bother me none.
    Sucks for those who buy it regularly though.

    Everyone starts out that way; I was no exception. But then Nexon handed out free NX, like a pusher handing out free crack at a playground, and I was hooked!

    It was the free NX. Like opioids they are.

    The five states that don’t have a sales tax:
    Alaska
    Delaware
    Montana
    New Hampshire
    Oregon
    They say you will have to put in a zip code to calculate sales tax. why not just find a zipcode for a city in one of those states? then boom, no sales tax on your NX!

    I have a feeling, they'll take the zip code of your billing info, unless you're able to lie about your billing address.

    I dont save any of my billing info when i check out. they have a checkbox asking to save the info to the account just in case, and i always say no, or i just buy a Karma Coin, those have no tax either, and my place i go to has one of those $10-500 choose your cash type of cards, so i can get a custom amount

    Well, I think you'll still have to enter a physical address.

    Karma Coin will be taxed when you redeem it they say, so if your area sales tax is x%, x% amount of NX will be deducted when you redeem it.

    Every time someone uses that phrase, "i'm going to stop spending on nx", they still spend on NX anyways. You can't fool Nexon, they got you by the tail.

    Will this affect VPNs?
