Newegg voluntarily hands over user sales data to the connecticut tax commision

this is a few days old .

interview with the connecticut tax commissioner

lots of double talk in this one including, but not limited to :

a person with a computer on newegg (for example) is a local retailer and therefore tax must be collected (this is how i understood what he said).

how unfair it is for local retailers to have to compete against the non taxed online retailers, because of the sales tax difference.

hey commish , here’s a radical solution: get rid of your sales tax, problem solved.

well isn’t that lovely
how many times are we going to get taxed later now?

Not me… I buy very little over the internet. I like to shop local and in NH that means Tax Free baby. :grinning:
