Taxes on internet sales

Yep, hate me....there is no good reason that any reseller should not be charging a sales tax unless the consumer and the seller are in the same state and that state has no sales tax, ie NH. Or the buyer has a federal/state sales and use exemption number and the states in question have a reciprocal exemption clause. It just isn't "fair" business to allow them not to charge you sales tax.

The common test of having a "physical presence" within the state is a thing of the past, thanks to my home state of California. All on-line retailers are supposed to collect CA sales tax on sales shipped to CA, and the US Supreme Court backed them up with the decision mentioned earlier in this thread. This is why Budget Golf started charging CA sales tax, as have many others. Any state can start requiring this, and I'm sure most eventually will.

Unfortunately you are correct. We moved out of CA last year partially because of taxes.
