FAQ: Why am I being charged sales tax on my purchase?
Short answer: Please ask your government.
SUMMARY
eSellerate (a DR MyCommerce, Inc. company), as our main credit card
processor, is responsible for the collection of U.S. sales tax based on the
location of their nexuses. Although it is not possible to prevent sales tax
from being collected on orders placed by customers in those states,
customers whose organizations are tax-exempt can receive a refund of the
sales tax collected on their orders.

MORE INFORMATION
eSellerate collects sales tax on certain orders placed by customers located
in U.S. states where DR MyCommerce, Inc., eSellerate's parent company, is
registered to administer sales tax. In some of those states, sales tax might
or might not be collected depending on the contents of the customer's
shopping cart. For U.S. orders placed by customers in states where DR
MyCommerce Inc. is not registered, no sales tax will be collected.
eSellerate also handles the details of calculating, collecting and remitting
VAT for our European customers. VAT will be applied if you proceed with an
order when VAT ID verification is unsuccessful. You may be able to reclaim
the tax by filing for reimbursement with your local VAT authorities.
Note for Customers in Norway: Norway has enacted a law requiring companies
such as eSellerate to collect sales tax on purchases by customers located in
Norway, when the orders include electronically-downloaded products. This tax
is separate from VAT (Value Added Tax), which is collected from customers in
countries that are part of the EU.
