I am just curious about the pricing on the mainland L$ Auctions. Lets say I win an auction and my winning bid is say, 2000L (it would be a 512 only), does anyone know if that is all i pay? or are there any taxes etc added on to my winning bid? I know about tier etc, I'm only curious about the final price i will pay at Auction.

thanks

Cale

Unless they changed things, if you win an auction at L2000, that is all you pay.

Thanks Soji :) I am trying to find it somewhere in the knowledge base, without success. I would hate to win an auction then get slammed with some outrageous taxes etc

I'm not sure if VAT applies to the auction price or not. If you are in the EU, you might need to worry about that. If you are in the US the auction price should be all that you pay.
