Well, NY state sales tax is 4% so...

59.99x0.04=2.3996 (2.40)
59.99+2.4=$62.39

I'd say it's safe to assume your states tax is something under 10%... 10% would make 59.99 into $65.99, so your price would be at most that.

I live in Washington state where it is a bit under 10%, so I just say it's 10% so that I don't over spend.

Its 0.08 to the dollar, so do 0.08*59.99

When you order it, it should tell you how much tax is before you click pay, right? All the things I buy do, but I don't know how the UK works.

In Oregon, we don't have sales tax. In California, I don't believe you are charged sales tax on virtual currency and games.
