[QUOTE="Burton Strauss III, post: 4029509, member: 59677"]To follow on to Conder's post, most of the states have a two-front plan - [LIST] [*]if you sell into the state and pass a minimum (e.g. 100 transactions or $100,000 or whatever the state picked) you have to collect the tax and remit it. [*]if you sell through a marketplace (e.g. fleaBay) and the marketplace passes the minimum, then the marketplace has to collect the tax and remit it. [/LIST] WRT sales overseas, did you use eBay's global ship? I wouldn't doubt that is seen - for tax purposes - as a sale into whatever state the service is located in. Finally, WRT the general problem - if eBay is implementing YOUR state's tax rules incorrectly, pick up the phone, call them and explain the rules (it's helpful if you can point them to the state's rules). We've seen several cases where incorrect implementations have been fixed... Or I guess you can whine and whinge here. It does nothing but inconvenience a few electrons and certainly doesn't take a single step towards solving the problems.[/QUOTE]
