Windows 10: Why does Microsoft not show you the final price when you buy Minecraft for Windows?

Why does Microsoft not show you the final price when you buy Minecraft for Windows?My daughter just bought Minecraft for Windows so she can play with her cousin who plays on XBox. I let her buy it with my credit card and pay me back. As I was going through the prompts for buying it, I kept expecting it to show me what the final price would be. It kept just saying 26.99 + applicable taxes. I got all the way through actually purchasing it and it never once told me what the final price was! Never in my life have I seen an online purchase do this - let alone one of the most esteemed companies in t

After redeeming minecraft windows 10 gift code this happens.


Okay I went ahead followed the instructions to the "Letter" every single step and checked it multiple times.
And when i finally install minecraft i get a trial and time limit 90 minutes and it says "buy"
HELP??? This shouldn't of happened! Trying to get free windows 10 minecraft and it wouldn't work!!
(this was done in a virtual machine but performance was better than acceptable so minecraft ran smooth regardless. shouldn't effect it?)

I tried and it just wouldn't work. Tried uninstalling minecraft and reinstalling it and restarting. Nope. Still wants me to buy it. and it's still the trial.
I don't know where else to get help from because the microsoft forums don't even reply to me and mojang said it's not their problem.

Microsoft to buy Mojang (Minecraft) for $2.5B

They stand literally NOTHING TO GAIN by not supporting the devices the game is ALREADY ON and has a bigger userbase on. You think they think because they make it a MS exclusive everybody is going to jump on a Windows phone? Lol no. Will they develop it for that? Sure why not. But they're not going to drop support for other platforms.

The Microsoft Deal Could Finally Put Minecraft on Oculus Rift

Nowhere at all did I say MS owned Oculus. I said their acquisition for $2 billion means they aren't going anywhere because you think it's a gimmick. Minecraft on an Oculus would = Minecraft on a VR device. And if MS was developing one, they could put it on there. Or possibly they don't put it on the Oculus at all - they put it on their device they are working on. If they are, who knows. Again, none of us, it's all speculation.
