[Elecraft] INTERNET PURCHASING

[KQ8M]

In the state of Ohio internet tax is required. The company may not charge it but it is up to you to pay it. Also if a company has a
presence in your state the tax will be taken out at the time of purchase. Also to the large extent, the schools are funded by
property taxes and taxes received from the lottery.

Dear Kent,

Internet sales are not tax free in the UK. Nor, I believe, in the rest of 
the EU. We do not have local sales taxes in the UK but we pay national Value 
Added Tax of 20% on purchases of all goods (with some exemptions) whether 
from local businesses or from internet vendors - even on purchases direct 
from from Elecraft. This is 20% of not only the purchase price but also the 
shipping costs.

73 to all

Internet sales are almost universally tax-free
