Holy moly! We're way of topic now, but this is what you said....

Be careful with the no sales tax comment.


What "comment"? The poster's statement inferred a savings on sales tax.

My interpretation of YOUR post was that, as a result of your post, readers might think the seller was suggesting that buyers could avoid sales tax. And, of course, the seller was NOT suggesting that. At least I don't believe he was based on how he worded it.

I'm done.

Ed,

I read it as though some people sell for the price of the machine and sales tax, while others sell for just the price of the machine, which would "save" the buyer the sales tax.

There are many businesspeople who forget when they sell used equipment that they should be collecting sales tax, unless it is sold and shipped to a customer who is located outside a state in which their business is licensed, or if their customer is tax exempt.

I was simply looking out for a fellow forum member. Future problems could arise from such an oversight. I in no way was declaring anyone a "bad guy". I hope you know me better than that.

I am referring to deals withing the U.S. market. I'm sure laws vary tremendously country to country and continent to continent.

And you could say, State To State. Every state has a different sales tax policy.

And every state is re-visiting their current policy due to the impact of internet sales on their sales tax.
