Actually, NC compensates for that by asking for your out-of-state purchases when you file your state income taxes. So if you choose to be honest, you end up paying the sales tax anyway.
NC doesn't want to leave a penny unturned... so they get you coming and going with both a sales and an income tax. :/ (and they still spend all of it and more)
