Is it legal to charge tax on a deposit for a game?
I preordered 3 games from Fry's 3 months ago..the game launched and I went in to pick up 2 and decided to get my other 5.00 back. After 45 minutes of the managers crowding around and discussing this I finally got my 5.00 with tax back, equaling 5.44.
But...here is the real question...the other 2 deposits for 5.44 each were only applied for 5.00, not 5.44. Is this legal? Who gets the .44 and how can you charge tax on purchasing nothing?
