In Canada, yes. I would be very surprised if American inventory taxes were not very similar.
Going back quite a few years, at one point, I used to order paperbacks that I couldn't get in the town I was living in from order forms in the final pages of other paperbacks (Ace for an example). That practice was dropped due to inventory taxes making it too expensive to keep older stock around.
