[QUOTE="OldRetiredGuy, post: 3637684, member: 105878"]First post so I hope I do this right. Had 1st hand experience with this about 2 weeks ago. 8% ebay bucks used on auction by seller from Maryland. I am in Pennsylvania and the sale was for 90% silver dimes which I have never had to pay sales tax on before. As soon as I began the payment process I noted the 6% PA sales tax. I went to PA Revenue department website first to ensure nothing had changed regarding taxability of this type of purchase. It had not. I requested ebay customer service call me. CS person told me that eBay's system was showing the sales tax on all purchases made within states that had sales tax "but" that when I go to the actual payment screen it would no longer show the tax. I went to the next screen, prior to confirming payment, and sure enough the tax was no longer showing so I completed payment while on the phone with the ebay CS rep just to ensure it did not get added. It was not. So before you decide to cancel your purchase because of eBay's system showing tax, take the payment process to the final screen before confirming and this 'should' show if the purchase is or is not taxable in your state. Hope this helps.[/QUOTE]
