So I went to my local Blockbuster and picked up a PSN card and downloaded Mortal Kombat II (only $4.99) to try it out, since I'm a newbie with my PS3. Anyways my only gripe with it, is that they charge you tax for the gift card and then charge you tax once again for the game. Even the clerk at Blockbuster was surprised it charged tax on the card.

Must be your state, I have never been charged tax using the playstation store.

Me neither - but I have seen cards that have an "activation fee" even though they get 2% off of your purchases.

As for the sales tax of the downloaded game I don't mind that, since I'm buying the game, just don't like being double taxed, once for the gift card and once for the game. As for the users in Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon they don't get charged sales tax, since their state has no sales tax law. The same thing with Hawaii except it is charged to businesses instead of consumers.
