ebay and state tax

[doublespurs21]

just found out, when you buy on ebay, there is a addition charge for state sell tax. I can see paying tax on something brand new. but paying taxes on something used or being 50 years old.  34 states do this now,,

City, county,state and the federal government all believe your money is their money and want as much of it as they can get if they can figure out a way to to tax anything and everything they will do it

Yea and it is even more if you buy from somebody in your state.

Yup no more bargains on ebay any more. I've been paying the tax since the start on July. Those big ticket calls , motorcycle or maybe classic car really hit you hard when you figure in the tax. We pay plenty for tax in NY and I wonder just what our wonderful governor is going to do with the extra money.

You made a huge mistake, you said "governor" and what you meant to say was DICTATOR

Along with ebay, private seller sales on Amazon have to charge tax now too. Before you'd only pay tax if Amazon or the seller you purchased from had a physical location in your state. No more.

That's how ebay was too.
