This is nothing new, and sales tax has been charged on internet sales for over a year! Very few states do Not charge tax on internet sales. We are lucky to only have 7.05% sales tax! New York is 8.52%, Tennessee is 9.55%, Texas 8.19%. For the 3rd biggest state in the Country, we are doing very well in this area!
