You're likely not really saving the sales tax with Amazon, as the jurisdiction you live in likely expects you to voluntarily remit the tax. It's just the difference between collected at source and voluntarily remitted after the fact.
Except compliance with voluntary remittance is understandably, and unfortunately, low. But that doesn't mean you are really saving the tax. It's just that Amazon, by doing their best to avoid collecting the tax on your behalf, is making you (and lots of other people) law-breakers.
