I do not charge sales tax in US bound orders.
Some customers have told me that sales tax has been charged but on the receipt that I get I do not charge tax and it would be illegal for me to charge tax but not give it back - a misrepresentation or even fraud.
I asked one of my clients to send me their statement showing the tax because I did not charge for it.
I have not yet seen the statement but I have a feeling it is true because some of my clients have made reference to that previously.
Is Paypal charging sales tax for some states without my knowledge?
If so, when refunding the customer would that tax which I did not collect be refunded?
When you log into your paypal account do you see a different deposit amount than what the order was for.
If it isn't on your statement and you refund the tax your gonna be out the money.
That seems like a bug where Paypal stands to make a substantial amount of money.
Since I did not see the statement, I can only speculate if the tax had been charged or not.
Just that I did not get the money or charged for it.
what a relief!
Here's what happened:
For some reason, the shopping cart states that there is tax but once the checkout has the address, the tax is removed. This can and has led to confusion.
