I bought 15 at 99¢ and I debated buying from Sony so I could use a cart and make one purchase, but the tax would have been $1.20 which is enough to buy another book, so I made 15 individual purchases through Kobo...
It's a combination of the state you live in and the states that the seller is in.

Kobo does try (or did, 'til I "moved") to charge me tax, regardless of the publisher.
