Admins, please read this!

I'm a 2011 Veteran (Previous Account is Banned), and I haven't bought BC in a while. I bought it today. I bought a limited for 480 R$, and I need to sell it for 700 to make a 10 R$ Profit.

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!

ROBLOX should be ashamed to have it at 30%. The least they could do is lower it by 10-20%!

@myth, That is very true. But if ROBLOX is going to keep the Tax, then the least they can do is lower it!

We do need tax, it's called inflation. the Tax keeps inflation from rising AS fast, it still rises, but not as fast. Inflation IS happening, look at past TC rates, 2 tix per robuck, now it's 10.1 - 11 tix per robuck.

Inflation. Without it the prices would be 10x worse than they are now. And 1 tix would equal 1 robux.

No support.

@Iam, I see your point. But 30% is still "over the top".

I remember when it was 25%, that was the day... but, as more people join, what happens is there are more daily tix and bux being given, so not only will stuff inflate, the rates will inflate faster too. So expect the tax going to 35% within a few months.

@iam, That would be really sad, if the Tax went up to 35%.

You can't, they will only make it higher, as roblox becomes more popular.

What "inflation"? R$ and Tix will stay the same. I mean, when you buy a hat, the R$ doesn't go to anyone but Roblox!

Wow...
Inflation is caused by the thosands of people earning daily tix, and even more so by the many BC club members' daily income. The TC rates used to be 2 tix per robuck, now they are at 10tix per robuck.

The tax ensures that whenever there is a transaction between users, 30% will be sure to be removed from the economy.

Although we don't get tax refunds or anything.

TBC = 20% Tax
OBC = 15% Tax

I find that more fair.

They shouldn't be exempt from the the as much just because they are in a higher class of BC.

It's like intentional tax evasion or exempting them from the normal tax.

Yeah, certain people shouldn't be exempt from the 30% Tax Rate. It's just really annoying, when I try to make money off of limiteds.

I hate those users that doesn't have a clue about tax (even when it clearly states so), sells a limited at a higher price (but with tax), and complain how they lost R$.

Roblox should raise the tax to 100 so limiteds can finish since they are useless

They most likely wont raise the tax above 35% if they have to raise it they wont and just cut the daily login award to 5 tix.

Roblox works on printing money.
If people's earning from sales are taxed high then everyone will get richer, prices to straight up, then makes your money worthless. So it would be easy to sell somthing for R$700 but it would be worth R$100 in today's money

@CreationsInc

It seems like people have already beat me to the inflation points.

Anyway,

Tax also prevents various monopolizations. I'm not saying it can't happen/doesn't already happen, I'm simply saying that tax discourages people from doing it. For example, if I were OBC and wanted to monopolize a semi-low priced limited, I could buy out the lowest one and resell it at a higher price, and repeat this about ten times or so. Without tax, I would be earning a great amount of profit from this method. Thankfully, though, there *is* tax, so doing this would be much more difficult and less fruitful since you don't earn as much profit (thus discouraging people).
