The state sets a tax rate, but it can vary from county to county, depending upon added additional city and transit taxes. My state starts with a base rate of 6.25%, but actual sales tax for my county is 8.25%. Then again, I could drive two or three counties over and pay a rate of 7.25%...or lower, I suppose, but I'm assuming Amazon would tax me at the rate of the county in which I reside.
If I travel to, say, San Diego, California, though...where sales tax is 7.25%...stores there don't insist I pay my home/county sales tax of 8.25%.
