I guess the sales tax thing just hit there.

I am in California.

It has not hit here yet but was told it will come Oct. 1st.

If I want to buy something, a few extra bucks for sales tax is not going to prevent me from buying whatever it is. In fact, I just bought a used laptop on there and wowza, what a great deal for $180.00 (saved me a bundle not having to buy a new one, esp. when I did not care to purchase a new one).

It seems to be hit and miss best I can tell.

Thank you for your reply.
