WARNING: If paying for your hotel room with RCs in Nevada, make sure they do NOT charge you tax!

Nevada must be different because most places I've seen, state that the tax is already included in the price you see.

What states? California, New York, Florida are states I'm familiar with and saless taxes are added on to retail prices.

The only time I've seen sales taxes included in the price paid is with gasoline.

So if you paid cash for, say, a $25 buffet at a Nevada casino, they'd add tax on top? Around here, it's already in the $25. Maybe it's a regional or state thing.

Buffet prices in Vegas are always before sales tax.

So a $29.99 buffet in Vegas ends up close to $32.50.

If you pay with RCs on the spot at a CET buffet, there is no tax charged. So you could have that $29.99 buffet for 2999 RCs, but if you charged it to your room and then paid with RCs, you'd need to use over 3200 to cover the tax.

BUMP

Stayed at Flamingo over Superbowl weekend and this same issue occurred.

Have to go through the same process... and upper management is now "looking into it", just as Rio and Harrah's did last year.

Nobody seems interested in the fact that two other Caesars properties already looked into it and agreed I was correct.

What a pain in the ass.

I made it clear I wasn't looking for one-time exceptions or customer service credits.

"I just want this to be done properly, according to what the law says", I told them.
