New Heritage State Sales Tax

I know most of the material going through these larger auction houses are higher end items but Does anyone think this may bring about a resurgence of the local/regional card show where Cash is King?

Only if those shows start selling whats in the auctions...

As someone who's been paying sales tax to Heritage for several years, it'll be nice to someday have all the bidders back on an even playing field -- or nearly even I should say. I guess the tax rates still differ from state to state.

Yeah this pretty much cements my non-participation. Another 10% just to be able to compete is hard to justify on my end when there are (for now anyways) so many other tax free options.

It does pique my interest in researching a resellers licence, since there are surely more taxes in more states for more AHs to come.

Actually it is a even playing field, just most people are a little dishonest and are not paying their states use tax and applicable municipal tax.

As someone who has had a sales tax license(resellers) it is way easier to just pay the taxes on your hobby purchases. If you do your own taxes and your time means nothing then maybe it would be worth it.

Yes, they do. Regarding an 'even playing' field. What is your state income tax rate in FLA again? Care to 'even that out' as well?
