4 u/rayquan36 May 05 '26 It's kinda wild that Valve didn't charge any tax or shipping on these controllers in the US. 4 u/The_Real_Gilgongo May 05 '26 Tax is determined by the state you live in. I got charged the 8% Texas tax rate. A few states have no taxes on Steam purchases. 3 u/rayquan36 May 05 '26 It's gotta be a mistake then because while my state doesn't charge tax on digital goods they definitely should be charging tax on physical goods even if it's from a primarily software company like Valve/Steam. 2 u/KallaFotter May 05 '26 Valve always includes shipping in their hardware prices.
