Re: Regarding tax on shipping for the love of God!
I guess I'm lucky that I live in California. My tax rate is 7.75% and my invoices show that it is only collected on the final sale price of the item. Considering gas in our area is close to $4/gal, the S&H fee is quite reasonable for me.

Re: Regarding tax on shipping for the love of God!
I hear you! I live in Washington and where I live in the sales tax is 10%. Now if some folks would figure out that is not SLC's idea to charge tax on shipping I would be a happy camper. That being said being charged tax on the original price of an item before a discount is applied is another matter altogether and should never happen.
