    Can't purchase a game that costs more the $9.99


    I have a weird problem...I am trying to buy backwards compatible XBOX 360 games for my XBOX One. If the game costs $9.99 or less I can buy it with no problem. If the game costs more than that, I get an error saying something to the effect of "Sorry you
    can't purchase game x at this time". Is there any way to fix this?

    :)

    Will the Xbox One have a Xbox Classics section to buy old games from 360 and the Original Xbox?

    300% lol no that would mean that GTA San Andreas would cost 120$ plus taxes when it costs 9.99$ lol 300% more. GTA San Andreas use to cost 60$ back in the day.

    Where can I see my dollar balance on my xbox account?

    So, today my MS points which used to display on the top right of this page to the left of "My Account" no longer show, instead it just says "Gold Member" there. Which would be fine, but I can't find anywhere that shows the dollars they were converted to.
    Where is the balance on my account now shown?

    On another note I'm less than happy to see it's more expensive to purchase xbox digital cash via Bing Rewards than it was to purchase the MS points. For example, Alan Wake: American Nightmare was 800 MS points and now costs $9.99. You could purchase two
    four hundred point MS point cards for 950 Bing Reward points (475 Bing points = 400 MS points). Now you can only buy $3 digital cards on Bing for 360 Bing points. Which means a game that did cost 950 Bing points now costs 1200 Bing points... plus tax. So everything
    cost more now via Bing Rewards. Makes me suspect cost has gone up with this conversion regardless of how you pay. Well actually, just the tax alone has increased the cost.

    Hey there Muchagroovy.

    That's an odd issue you're running into. Can you please clarify what type of payment method you're using to purchase these games?

    I have tried using three different credit cards and PayPal. The two items that I am particularly interested in purchasing are the Capcom Arcade Cabinet All-in-One pack ($24.99) and the Pac-Man Museum ($19.99). I tried a couple of other $10+ games and they
    wouldn't work either, but $9.99 games work fine. Thanks for your help.
