I always get the "full" discount, here 50%. I live in Europe.
Assumption: VAT: 5%
$ 10 * (100/105) * 50% * (105/100) = $ 5
$ 9.52 (w/o VAT) * 50% discount = $ 4.76 * 1.05 (add VAT) = $ 5

Yes, I was referring to sales tax. Not sure why else mXb would not get the "full" discount.
Yes, sales tax is added to actual purchase price, therefore explaining why a 50% code only seems to net a 45% discount.
