what about international purchases ? are they now open to taxes if ordered on line ?
Many states do tax you after death, called an "Estate Tax".I understand what yer saying but I'm tired of paying taxes...Heck we are taxed to death and if they could get away with it
they would tax us after death...LOLI just wish they left things the way they were.

I agree it was fun while it lasted. The truth is this was a huge loophole that affected local retailers and our states revenue streams. You will still likely be able to get the hard to find stuff you want on the net vs local but this gives retailers a chance to stay in the game. I have enjoyed the benefits of these tax free purchases but have alway found it fundamentally wrong.
Because you are buying it in Florida. Look at it this way- your computer becomes a tiny little retail outlet for Brownells, Midsouth, Midway, or whoever. Your computer is in Florida. You wouldn't expect to pay Missouri taxes at a Florida Bass Pro because it's a Missouri-based company, would you? Maybe this seems a bit less significant to me because I'm in Montana- no sales taxWhen I'm in California I pay California rates. When I'm at home in Florida I pay local rates...so why would I pay Florida rates for something I buy from a California company?
if the state catches you doing that wont it cause you problems or it it fine to do that?There is software you can plug right into your sales client that will use your customers home address and tell you exactly what tax you need to be collecting. Then you can use it to generate a report and it will tell you how much you need to send to each place and how much you get to keep.
Or like me just do not collect it and tell the customer it is their responsibility to pay their state tax.
that will be quite a burden on a one man shop who ships to quite a few states thats for sureThink about the implementation. The small business will be required to file sales tax reports in all states where sales took place, sending in the sales tax they have collected plus feds, plus DC. Anything I missed? Enjoy filling out your 52 tax reports.
one man shop is HISTORY now really,,that is why I'm selling off stuff and selling the building too.Will be going to a whole different sales mode,,that will be quite a burden on a one man shop who ships to quite a few states thats for sure
You want to try a different brand of powder. You buy "one pound" local. Cost about $30.00 + tax. Maybe $1.50/$2.00? So close to $33.00/$35.00 out the door.
You can get it "online" for $22.00 + shipping + Hazmat.
Shipping anywhere from $10.00 to $15.00
Hazmat maybe another $25.00?
So your "online deal" just cost you somewhere around $60.00.
You tell me where you saved the $$. And how much did it cost you to drive your car/truck to the store to shop local??
And if you can't afford to pay the taxes, you can't afford to play the game.
NO SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH!!
I live in Delaware. Delaware has no sales tax!!Whoopee, right? This new law won't affect ME because EVERYTHING that I buy that's delivered to me in Delaware is free of tax!
The downside is, Delaware charges an 8 1/2% tax on ALL of my income.

The original lawsuit by South Dakota wanted online retailers outside the state to collect sales tax for sales inside the state and remit them to the stateI think many are confused as to how this will work. It has nothing to do w/the state where the purchaser lives.
If you buy a trigger from me. Ky sales tax is 6%. That's what everyone pays, regardless of your state of residence.
Lets say you make a purchase from MID SOUTH, their tax rate is 9.75%. OUCH thats going to hurt.
Its not complicated, JUST EXPENSIVE. LDS
and that is the way its going to work.The original lawsuit by South Dakota wanted online retailers outside the state to collect sales tax for sales inside the state and remit them to the state
