Try ordering some boat stuff on line. Many suppliers will charge you
your local sales tax as part of the transaction.

I buy a lot online and haven't paid state or local tax yet.

Ever.


We always have to pay the 14% HST (combined federal GST of 6% + PST of 8%)
when ordering out of province. The seller is obligated to charge this tax
and remit it to the governments. I don't buy from small time sellers so
there may be a louphole there.
