<p>[QUOTE=&quot;westcoasting, post: 1809590, member: 46847&quot;]Here (California), there&#039;s a 7.5% (or something close) state sales tax on most everything non-core food... including PM purchase transactions under $1,500.&nbsp; PM transactions over $1,500 are considered&nbsp; &#039;investments&#039; and thus, not taxed by the state.&nbsp; There&#039;s also a use tax, so, if you bought PM online (less than $1,500) from an out of state vendor and they didn&#039;t charge you state tax, I believe you have to calculate and include the tax on yearly state income tax filing.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I&nbsp; guess I feel fortunate to at least have the option to avoid state tax by purchasing $1,500 or more in PM. </p><p><br /></p><p>The 19% VAT on silver seems pretty surreal to me.&nbsp; Still, you might have other things better there where we have it worse here (quality of life)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
