An extra 17 bucks that I could have spent on apps, books etc.

I believe only people in CA have to pay taxes to Amazon, everybody else save a bunch! Especially, if I buy something high ticket, I always go to amazon because of this 'tax break'!

I believe I saved nearly $100 when I bought a plasma TV on amazon last , purely on taxes

Thoughts?

Actually, Amazon charges sales tax in NY state too, which is where I am. That's great that you're able to save so much money on Amazon not being charged tax. I wish that was the case for all of us.
