One would point out that the online sales tax is unsettled law. Currently, the rule of thumb is, if you don't have a physical presence in a state, you aren't obligated to collect that state's sales tax. A number of states have what is known as the Amazon Law, which says that companies of a certain size are obligated to collect sales tax. Those laws have not been tested in court yet. Some companies of a certain size will charge sales tax, simply because of potential liability. Amazon collects sales tax, but then again, they actually have a physical presence (warehouses, etc...) in most of the states.
