[Dixielandjazz] Sales tax on graphics - goods vs. services

[TCASHWIGG at aol.com]

Nancy: As I mentioned in Bob RINGWALDS' POST, it depends upon the wannabe 
collector you talk to, it simply does not apply to everybody in the service 
business at least not yet, but if the Bof E folks find out that there are folks 
charging it and pocketing the extra &7. 75% as profit you can bet they will come 
after it.

I use one of the biggest manufacturing companies in the industry and they do 
not charge me tax on anything except the finished shrink-wrapped CDs that they 
deliver to me.   "The Product" and if I provide them with my resale number 
they don't even charge me then, and I am allowed to pass the TAX on to the 
consumer at the final sale which is what the BofE is entitled to anyway.    They 
are not however beyond trying to cut corners and collect it over and over and 
over if they can catch folks off guard and get them to pay it.

Cheers,
