So if you drive to New York, buy a camera, drive home, then open the box in
Georgia you owe sales tax to Georgia? (and probably New York) Reminds me of
a comment made by someone in another country that the government makes
everything illegal then the government officials decide who has to obey the
laws ...
Nearly 30 years ago I received a letter along with the rototiller that came
from New York, that although the company doesn't collect taxes for the state
of California, that I am obligated to pay the appropriate taxes. IRRC
California had been pushing to get everyone anywhere in the U.S. to collect
the taxes before shipping. They didn't succeed :)
