In fact independent online sellers are already collecting sales tax on in-state shipments they make, and many internet sales platforms provide a service to handle in-state sales taxes already.
So I wouldn't doubt that big third party sales platforms, like Amazon and eBay, will add a sales tax collection service for sellers who use them and completely remove the administrative burden for them.
So I doubt that administrative costs will be a big problem for internet sellers.
Of course the sales tax on the items they sell will make their products more expensive, but I doubt the admin stuff will.

I agree. Administrative costs are a non-issue.
