Internet sales tax
How does it work? I know that usually there's a thing about a retail presence in your state that will require your paying tax. Makes sense. So I order from staples.com and have to pay tax. But I just ordered a couple of books from barnesandnoble.com and no sales tax. What's that about? I know there is one in NC, it's a couple miles away. Anyone know the rules of this? TIA.
ps - My invoice/email receipt said $0.00 for tax, so it's a sure thing. <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

Umm, yeah. I'm working on those forms right now...
I guess it's possible that the tax was included in the price, but it says $0.00 for the tax in the receipt.
edit: Nope, the price is the list price minus 20%. Interesting. I wonder if b&n is gonna get in trouble...
