You think your over tax in USA ? In Canada, biggest liars and thieves on the planet . Not to mention they have some of the stupid bastards on earth! Tell them to go to Hell,
Received a Bill for State Tax on An Amp Bought in Canada Last Year
Wow! The envelope said “Dept of Revenue” so I figured it may be my car tags due. I opened the envelope to find a statement that I owed $665 for “use tax” on an amp I bought last year in June. Shocked is an understatement. Yes, I bought a used amp from a guy in Canada through A’gon. But I paid the tariff on it. Now they also want tax. However, the amount they are basing it on is over double what I paid for the amp. But had to send it to Don Sachs for repair a few months later. So I wonder if they are seeing that as a separate purchase rather than a repair. They even charged me $43 interest which is more ridiculous IMO.
So the question...Are you required to pay tax on a used amp or other used items? Has anyone else encountered this? Yes, I know the states are cracking down on the sales tax. But on used items? Wow

grannyring Seems true unless you are a business. We common folk selling on Craigs List, yard sales, Facebook buy sell trade, AudioGon etc.., pay and change no tax.Apparently you haven't bothered to read the OP, because he was charged the tax. As I noted, used items in Tennessee are not exempt from sales tax and when the tax is not collected, a companion "use tax" can be assessed by the state. Here's what the OP asked: Are you required to pay tax on a used amp or other used items? Has anyone else encountered this?The answer is clearly, "yes." And that's why he received the tax bill. |
grannyring We just disagree. The tax was in errorNot really. There’s a difference between disagreeing and being disagreeable. I provided you a direct link to the Tennessee Department of Revenue sales tax rules. According to the Department of Revenue, used items are taxable in Tennessee. So you’re arguing with them, not "disagreeing" with me. |
