It's extremely unrealistic.

It is not unrealistic, it is waaay too high. 30%? That takes 1500 robux from 5000 robux items? They should not finish the tax though, with taxes the community is more like real-life. But they should atleast drop it to 20% or maybe less.

I can't for the life of me find the thread I wrote a huge writeup on why we have the tax, but what it comes down to is keeping the market stable by introducing a sink for the amount of money coming in from Robux purchases. Without the tax the amount of Robux would simply increase endlessly, which would be a problem for prices and whatnot.

But there is already a problem with values of items, and the new "Multiple Items" feature is only going to worsen this.

I agree with Doom and Ice. Where as I hate the tax because it takes off robux but I agree with doom cause he said it sinks the roblox market. But seriously, it needs to be lowered.

Doom you are correct but we are not talking about removing taxes no lowering it down to a reasonable level not too high nor too low say 15.0

The tax drives UP prices because people have to sell at a higher amount to get the same amount of robux.

I do think the taxes are too high. But, it's supposed to act like a real-life market. Exchange rates go up, and they go down. Just like any market. Deal with the high tax.
