I was just looking for these last week on google. I wasn't sure if they had them or not and found out it was just in Japan. Yay now I can actually get some PSN games.

Thats great, but I guess they will have to sell them instore for something like $17.70 +tax (Manitoba 6%GST+7%PST) so it equals the exact $20.

If its like iTunes cards you are paying $20 for $20.
Then your purchase on the store is where tax is collected.

you don't pay sales tax in the states?
damn! its not a huge deal, you get kinda used to paying an extra 13% on everything. I had a brain fart earlier... duh! 20$ is 20$ its just wont buy you something worth "20$" :P

wow money cards always have the money that says on them and they never have tax. The companies sell it for a little cheaper and the store sells it for more.

I hope this means they are coming to Canada as well. They should partner with some big companie like McDonalds or Walmart to have them at every checkout.
Good on you Sony.
Theres been a card redeem thing under account settings for quite some time now.

We also need this for Europe. Come on sort it out Sony, how long does it take? The PSN store has already been coded to take it (as it's already running in Japan).
Sony needs to pull it's finger out...

Have you tried to use it? I received one and my PS3 said it was invalid.

Does this mean people who are in a region that is not supported by SCEA (like South America) will now be able to purchase stuff?

Dude, you won't believe this but JUST TODAY! I got issue #2 of PlayStation: The Official Magazine and in the Letters section, there was a question about PLAYSTATION Cards and the magazine's reply was "By the time you read this, SCEA will have made an announcement about this" and I was like...where is it?
And here it is! YES! Lol.
But yeah, all of my purchases have been made using prepaid debit cards, which make you end up loosing money because they have a monthly fee so when you have exactly $5 left, you can't add it and because you can't add in increments of $1 on the PSN, I have money left over on the card that can't be spent. It really blows...

If this is really true, I will Automatically Trade in my Guitar Hero 3 and Rock Band from XBOX 360 for the PS3 Counter Parts....
