Today I pulled out a reciept for my last WoW game card from 2 and a half months ago, and the bill was for 45 dollars for a 2 month game card here in Ontario. With pretty much every video game related item being non essential and is now part of the 14% tax in Ontario, so on top of the already 10 dollar overcharge for shipping and handling the boxes with a piece of plastic in it, the tax makes things even worse.

Sorry Blizzard, but I won't stand for that and there are a lot of people I know who won't as well and paying via game time cards and no, I refuse to get a credit card at my age.

Q u o t e:

Are you purchasing the Game Cards online and having them shipped to you, Rennadrel? Because Game Cards are available at most major retailers which carry our game and as far as I know, retailers do not charge you for shipping & handling if you pick it up in store.

If you have no other form of payment currently available, you may want to speak with your parents or other family who may have a credit card and is willing to help you pay for online transactions. I know back before I had a credit card I begged my dad every month to pay for my MMO subscriptions :)
