The art of boosting the price of a service because of how incompetent and thoughtless the customer was.
...Little shit asked me to go do a job at 8 PM! I told him no, and he said "How about tomorrow, after lunch?". I accepted, though I still put a fifty dollar Asshole Tax on it.

Get the vagina taxmug. This also applies to any car part from Japan, especially motors. Even if they offer no benefit over those available elsewhere (or are actually worse due to parts availability and shady importers) ricers will pay HUGE amounts of money for them. The tax is only increased if the motor was ever mentioned in an anime or used for early drifting.
You could build a B20 frankenstein motor with 225hp using parts from a CR-V and Integra for junkyard prices, but ricers STILL pay thousands for a worn out, probably stolen 200hp "JDM" motor.
Then there's the JDM wheels and body parts, which can cost thousands for no benefit at all. Ricer Tax is especially huge for JDM wheels, even if they're tiny, ugly and offer no benefit over a decent set of aftermarket wheels.

Get the Ricer Taxmug. The United tax is when clubs inflate football player valuations by 60-70% when Manchester United register an interest, because they know how easy it is to rinse ManU for everything they've got.

Get the The United taxmug. Scene tax is any extra cost tacked onto the price of a product as a direct result of the product's reputation or "Scene", rather than redeeming qualities or actual worth. Most commonly seen in hipster fashion, guitar and bass amplifiers and many other instances, some styles are "revived" and sold at a high price when the exact same product would be worth much less and is potentially much cheaper elsewhere.
1. Guy 1: Yeah, I got this shirt at General Pants for $75!
Guy 2: Wow... you know I found that exact shirt around the corner for $5? I guess that's the price you pay at a place that thrives on scene tax.
2. Guy 1: I'm looking to get a Sunn Model T bass amp. They're fairly pricey. What do?
Guy 2: Don't think there is anything particularly special about the Model T, but I've not used one. Unltralinear output stage, probably a fairly standard tone stack at a guess. The price is scene tax.
