The sales tax is admittedly a big kick to a lot of folks. They have no choice but to collect it. It is Uncle Sam it ain't Heritage, per se'. I bought one lot last night and am not outraged. It was a bid under my max bid too!! Living near Dallas I just figure in the
extra bid sales tax in my strategy. It was still a good deal imo....

For anyone from California my invoice shows:
Winning Bid price + 30.12% = out the door price.
I don't think I would change much of anything (maybe buy 1 less card since I could get it at similar prices anytime/anywhere?) but it was a mild shock.
I'll be back next year with Bid + 30.12% in mind.
