    Expansion Pass problems and Gamestop lied


    Bought the expansion pass, the amount of Microsoft points required to purchase it sold to me as the expansion pass, at my local Gamestop for $35. Come home and enter the code only to find out that I am being charged tax when I try to download the expansion
    pass, would be $37.45 with tax in NJ. Either Gamestop lied to me or Microsoft is trying to pull something here and I can't tell, but I still can not download the expansion pass until this is over. What should I do?

    :)

    Being Taxed Twice To Buy Something on the Marketplace

    I was just taxed twice by buying the Destiny Expansion Pass thru GameStop. The GameStop website, and the emailed invoice, said I purchased a download code; $35.00 plus tax. However, when I redeemed the code, I was credited only $35.00, and when I purchased
    the Pass I was charged $34.99 plus tax. So, after being in contact with both GameStop and Microsoft, it seems GameStop was only selling a gift card for the amount that would cover the Destiny Expansion Pass purchase; not a direct download code. So is this
    legal to charge tax on the Live Currency (a gift card)? And as the Microsoft Support suggested why would you ever buy a gift card or Live Currency (especially from GameStop), when you should just purchase everything via the Market Place? BTW, the link from
    the Destiny website, to purchase the Expansion Pass, to the Microsoft Store is broken, so only the GameStop option is available.

    Destiny Expansion Pass Not Appearing as a Purchased Item

    I didn't buy a Live currency card. I bought a Destiny Expansion Pass digital download code from Gamestop.

    sadly you will need to cover the tax, Gamestop is notorious for not giving the full amount. This is on GS not MSFT

    Season pass

    This was confusing for me as well. I pre-ordered Destiny at Gamestop with the expansion pass. When I went to pick up my game the clerk told me that Microsoft told Gamestop they had to add about $4 to the expansion pass and I had to pay that much more to
    get the game I had already paid for. Then when I entered the code for the expansion pass last night it said I had added $39.99 (price of expansion pack pre-order plus the extra Microsoft charge after the fact) to my Microsoft account. It didn't say I had ordered
    the expansion pack or had it in cue for whenever it comes out. What is Microsoft doing?
