It's $721 in taxes and $1400 for shipping. yikes.

From my invoice from the auction...
"If a buyer takes delivery in any of the following states, Christie's must collect any applicable state or local sales or use tax before property is shipped: New York, Florida, Texas, California, Illinois and Rhode Island."
On a separate note, I don't collect pictures, but those Ruth shots are amazing!
