PSN cards are available at GameStop/EB Games. I know this because i bought some today.

The ones here in Ottawa got them today so hope this is true on a larger scale.

PS i checked for earlier PSN card topics and they are probably past the first few pages of the board soi just made a new one.

Now get us the bloody video store. I forgave you Sony for the first few months because of super (annoyingly) strict Canadian law, but seriously that should have been resolved by now.

Question for anyone who buys them - are you charged tax on the purchase of the card? There'd better not be (like a gift card) as you already pay tax on PSN purchases. Of course, you do pay tax on Wii and XBL points cards, so I wouldn't be surprised if you get hit twice. I'll stick to my credit card, as unlike Wii and XBL points cards there's no financial gain in buying the physical cards...unless Amazon starts selling $20 cards for $18 or something.

About bloody time!

I contacted local EB Games in Toronto area and voila - 20$ and 50$ PSN cards are finally here. By the way, EB Games does not charge taxes for those cards, when you enter the code it will automatically deduct.

Good to know I don't get taxed twice. ;)

They are considered a gift card, so no tax.

The one at Eastgate is the EB I always go to. Now I finally don't have to worry about interest rates!

New here and from B.C, what do you use the cards for. Do you use your trophy points to downloading games or movies from PSN, is just like Xbox live.

I don't think i've ever seen the option to buy movies on the Canadian PS store. You can buy games and dlc mostly. Also some themes/wallpapers.

Why does this happen when after I got a credit card last week. I mean they couldn't release it any sooner? I mean the US has it, and Canada isn't much further to transport the bloody things to.

I would imagine some idiot government body slowed it down, or Sony was really lazy. Either way, it's here now.

To be honest, it doesn't really bother me that much anyways. It's probably only going to be Sony movies anyways if it ever did. I'd rather get them from some where that had an actual selection and not restricted to one studio company.
