If the store has enough of a connection to the state you're shipping to,
they'll charge sales tax anyway. Amazon, Newegg, Apple, etc. all charge sales
tax shipping to NY and I think CA too. (May be wrong for Amazon regarding CA.)
if the store charges it, you aren't responsible to pay it separately of course.
