linky

I have been watching this TV on Amazon for two days since I placed my order. From my limited experience, usually the price in the afternoon is lower than that in the morning. And sometimes the Amazon price is lower than 6Ave, sometimes higher. Just keep checking you may get the price you want

NY isnt the only state that gets taxed by Amazon FYI.

FYI, a recent NY ruling/law now requires that ALL internet orders to be taxed.

In fact I think but for the recent ruling/law Amazon did NOT use to charge tax for NY.

it's good to see competition going on. When 6Ave drops the price, Amazon drops it too, 10-20$ higher though. Amazon has it for 1421.04$.

Nope, not quite the law; it is NOT the law that ALL internet orders from other states to be shipped to NY are taxed in NY.

That may be the impact for large vendors and probably any large vendors who use any of the affiliate networks, but not the case for all vendors. By way of example, frys.com doesn't participate in an affiliate network and they don't collect NY sales tax. I've purchased from Fry's since the law went into effect, and they don't collect sales tax. I don't know what Overstock is doing, but they filed a lawsuit in NY and claimed at the time they were getting rid of NY affiliates. Amazon has sued as well. Amazon is suing as well.

Under the old law, any company with a physical presence in NYS had to collect tax for sales to NY addresses. The new law defines physical presence to include the presence of affiliates in the state (and requirements regarding payment of over 10K to affiliates in NYS per year). Thus, if there are no physical locations in the state AND no affiliates in the state, no NY tax is required to be collected on sales to NY.

From a NYS Department of Taxation and Finance memo on the new law:

Accordingly, if a business located outside New York State solicits sales of taxable
tangible personal property or services through employees, salespersons, independent
contractors, agents, or other representatives located in New York State, the business must
register as a vendor and obtain a Certificate of Authority for New York State sales tax
purposes.

The new legislation provides that a seller that makes taxable sales of tangible personal
property or services in New York State is presumed to be a vendor required to be registered for
sales tax purposes and required to collect sales tax on all of its taxable sales in New York State,
if both of the following conditions are met:
The seller enters into an agreement or agreements with a New York State resident1 or
residents under which, for a commission or other consideration, the resident
representative directly or indirectly refers potential customers to the seller, whether by
link on an Internet Web site or otherwise. A resident representative would be indirectly
referring potential customers to the seller where, for example, the resident
representative refers potential customers to its own Web site, or to another party’s Web
site which then directs the potential customer to the seller’s Web site.
• The cumulative gross receipts from sales by the seller to customers in New York State
as a result of referrals to the seller by all of the seller’s resident representatives under
the type of contract or agreement described above total more than $10,000 during the
preceding four quarterly sales tax periods. (Sales tax quarterly periods end on the last
day of February, May, August and November.)

For purposes of the presumption described above, a seller is also considered to have met
the condition of having an agreement with a New York State resident where the seller enters into
an agreement with a third party under which the third party, in turn, enters into an agreement
with the New York resident to act as the seller’s representative.
