By By no sales tax when buying on the interweb.
They are starting to collect e-sales tax here soon, and if they get their way all of us will be paying a sales tax for everything bought on the net.
States, Congress rallying for an e-sales tax
By Amrita Jayakumar, Published: July 8

A wave of states, including Virginia, have passed laws that will require consumers to pay sales tax on all Internet purchases as soon as next year. Other states and the District are pursuing similar measures. And in Maryland, Gov. Martin O’Malley (D)
wants to go further
and levy a tax on songs and other digital products bought through popular sources such as iTunes.
