BEWARE!! BH Photo reporting purchases to State
I think it is really wrong of both BH Photo and Apple insider to market that BH doesn’t charge sales tax outside of NY and NJ. I just got a tax notice from BH saying that they are reporting my $142 in purchases from last year to my State of Colorado so I’m reported as needing to pay sales tax.
that feels like a privacy violation. No other vendor does that which I’m aware of.
I emailed appleinsider to inquire but was ignored.
BEWARE!

2) This is actually a law, that an out-of-state vendor report to the state of purchase
3) We got no email from anybody talking about this
4) This is between you, B&H, and the state
2. Fine. But BH does it, most others do not, and their advertising makes it look like you are getting the benefit of no tax on your purchase. But they report you.
3. Strange, I think I sent it to a woman who posted the pricing from BH as an Appleinsider article on your homepage about getting great deals from BH.
4. Hmmm. You guys and them are clearly joined at the hip. All I'm saying is that you should do your readers a service and explain the truth about buying from BH, especially since they appear to be the only online retailer to have a process like this, law or no law. Perhaps stop trying to advertise that give appleinsider viewers the best deals. Recalibrate to advertise what the truly best deals are....there are many others.
