Suddenly, an Amazon sales tax ...

I've bought stuff online since 1989. Back then, it was mostly software. More recently it's been almost entirely thru Amazon and other allied dealers for all kinds of merchandise.

I haven't paid a nickel in sales tax on thousands of dollars in purchases over the years until just now, when I placed an Amazon order for a $20 windscreen for a Heil PR40 microphone, purchased thru Musician's Friend.

It was only $1.49. But that's an ugly start. And, of course, I blame Bush.

Respond here.
