Most, if not all, online shops I've bought from don't charge for state sales tax if they are not located in the State of delivery!
I'll wait for B&H or Adorama to have it.

It looks about to be a dozen from my cursory glance - for our small forum, that's not too bad.

Doesn't matter where the online shop is located - at least in the US, if a company has physical business operations in any state, consumer purchases made online from that state generally must include sales tax.

The reason B&H doesn't charge me tax is because they don't have operations located in Texas. But the moment they open an office in Texas, even if it is not a store - it could be a warehouse, or whatever, they would have a physical business presence in this state, and if I ordered something from their NY website, I'd have to pay Texas state tax to them, which B&H would then have to forward to the Texas state government.

Now, every state has different tax laws and rates - a notable one that has no sales tax on most tangible consumer goods is New Hampshire.

Things may be different outside the US, but that is pretty much the way it is here...

And I imagine that Sony has a business office of some sort in every US state, and probably just about every country on the planet...

Yes, I need a second body anyways. I used my A100 all year long at the dragrace track. I found myself constantly changing between the 70-200 2.8 Sigma EX and the Zeiss 16-80. Over 20,000 shots so far and season doesn't end until Nov. or weather closes us... I love the A100! Maybe there is better, Canon or Nikon but it has done everything I have asked it to do...

Still have my R1 and my wife is taking winner circle photos with it and helps me out when we get a special request.
You can see my A100 photos at http://[email protected] .
