Anyway...question is:

This phone retailed for $499. With the new sign-up, the lady said she will give it to me for $149 and a $100 rebate. Cool...$50 for the phone. Then when she talked about tax, she said I will be charged for the tax off of the $499 price. I was kinda :thinking:. I thought she should be charging tax on the $150 price. Is she just trying to make a little extra side money, or is this legit practice?

Holler.
