There have several threads about this. I posted this in one of the other threads.

I live in Wisconsin and delivery charges and shipping charges are subject to sales tax.

5) Delivery Charges
When a retailer sells taxable products or services which are subject to tax and the retailer charges the
purchaser for the delivery, the retailer's total charge, including the delivery charge, is taxable. It is
immaterial whether delivery is made by the seller's vehicle, a common or contract carrier, or the United
States Postal Service.
The correct state tax computation to be shown on an invoice when the retailer charges the purchaser for
delivery of the product is shown in the following example:
Merchandise $ 100.00
Delivery Charge 10.00
Subtotal $ 110.00
Tax ($110 x 5%) 5.50
Total $ 115.50

The reason for this is because of people trying to scam the system. You used to see it on eBay quite often. If a seller was selling a $20 card, they listed it for $1 plus $19 shipping to avoid paying eBay and PayPal fees, so eBay and PayPal adjusted their fee structure and started charging fees on shipping. The same thing happens with other businesses. A company sells and delivers a $500 item. They bill $1 for the item and $499 for shipping/delivery to avoid paying sales tax. The states figured it out and started charging sales tax on delivery charges.
