In europe, at least in most countries, it is required by law to have the prices shown to customers include VAT already.

So if you see a 19.99 price somewhere it really IS 19.99 and not 19.99 + some tax you never heard of...

I kinda prefer that over the way that the US and Canada does it.

What the heck do I care if something costs $500 if I actually have to be $550 since they got to add 10% onto it??
