Amazon.com Sues New York State Over the "Amazon Tax"
I wrote earlier about New York's so-called "Amazon Tax," which would force e-tailers to collect sales tax on purchases made by New York State residents. In the past sales tax collection has only been required of retailers who had a physical presence in a state.
But New York has crafted a new law to force e-tailers to collect sales tax, and Amazon.com isn't too happy about it. They filed suit Friday in State Supreme Court in Manhattan. ____________ Source: Tech-Ex Last edited by Iria; May 2, 2008 at 04:42 PM. |
