Tax on Amazon Prime

Marp · ‎03-09-2010

I received a notice early this month that my Prime would renew in April. The price is $139.

Could the difference between the current annual fee and the $151 you cited be due to taxes?

The current monthly payment is $14.99.

The eyes through which you see others may be the same as how they see you.

@Jordan2 "(they don't give you notice that it is renewing)."

Yes they do.

It is worth it to me, if you want to know your renewal date just go to amazon and click on account and then subscriptions and memberships .

@Jordan2, wonder why you are paying $151 when we are paying $139.

I would ask why.

Last September, it was $139, but with tax, we paid $147.83. (Missouri)

@Sage04 I live in New York State, maybe it is the taxes and other fine print fees? I guess I could call them and question it. This may be the last year I'll subscribe as it is getting too expensive.
