PS3 Price at GameStop ($199.99 + Tax): How to Calculate Your Exact Out-the-Door Total

I cannot give an exact total—sales tax varies by state, county, and city. GameStop's $199.99 base price is before tax.

How to Calculate Your Total

  1. Find Your Combined Sales Tax Rate:
    • State + County + City (e.g., CA 7.25% base + local = 7.25–10.25%)
    • Check: salestaxhandbook.com or your state Dept. of Revenue.
  2. Calculate: $199.99 × (1 + tax rate)
    • Example (8% tax): $199.99 × 1.08 = $215.99
    • Example (9.5% tax): $199.99 × 1.095 = $218.99
  3. Check GameStop.com: Enter ZIP at checkout—shows exact tax before purchase.
  4. In-Store: Ask associate for "out-the-door price" for your ZIP.

Additional Costs to Consider

  • Warranty: GameStop's PRP (Product Replacement Plan) ~$15–30 extra.
  • Accessories: Controller ($15–25 used), HDMI cable ($5–10), games.
  • Trade Credit Bonus: PowerUp Rewards Pro members sometimes get extra trade credit toward purchase.

PS3 Model Note

At $199.99, this is likely a refurbished 500 GB Slim or Super Slim. Verify:

  • Model number (CECH-20xx/21xx/25xx/30xx/40xx/42xx/43xx)
  • Includes: Console, 1 controller, power cord, AV/HDMI cable
  • Warranty: 30-day GameStop refurb warranty standard; 1-year optional.

Always confirm exact model, condition, and inclusions before purchasing.
