Would you be more likely to buy new gear out of state if there was no sales tax

I have a friend of mine that is a Mcintosh collector and every couple years he buys a piece or 2 to ad to his collection. He always buys out of state to avoid the sales tax. He say's there is no paper trail when you buy outside out of state. He said the only problem he ever has is that some Mcintosh dealers will not sell out of state. He says sometimes he has to make several calls to find a retailer that will sell to him.

Most manufactures will not allow a dealer to sell an item if there is a dealer in the state you live in. They have ways of getting around that like selling an item as a demo. There is no tax when you buy out of state. You can be a Dudley-Do - Right and pay the tax to the state of your residence when you do your taxes!

No i love to pay sales tax!!

Sales tax by all possible definitions is BS tax.
There's an income tax can solve all the taxes.
If there's a possibility to void than use it.

Sales tax is legalized robbery. It exists because it is an efficient collection engine.  It also slows down consumerism.
