this also happens often with products, often advertised to buy on TV. we have all seen those ads for "Product XYZ," that is sold and ordered from, let's say Kansas, and at the end of the ad, sometimes a few states (in addition to those living and ordering in KS) must pay sales tax,as well.

ive never understood this either.. but there has to be some legal reason that it can be done, for the states that are included.

Well, I can add a question if no answer.
Is the state sales tax only applicable where trhe goods are physically sold from, or are they applicable if the company is registered in another state in which the buyer is not resident?


In other words, is Heritage registed in Texas or in NY.

I'm curious to hear the answer to Franc's question, too.

I wrote to Grey sometime ago but I never got an answer to a question I had about Heritage. I've received notice in APril that because I live in New York, I will now be charged 8.45% sales tax on any purchase I make from Heritage. My question is why? Has the Governor of NY managed to pass a reciprocal tax bill with the state of Texas or did Heritage open up a New YOrk branch. I have not been biding on anything from Heritage lately pending an answer to this question. Please let me know. FRANC
