I didn't see the original, just most of the followups, so forgive me if this has already been mentioned. The Indiana State Tax form has a line for entering sales tax on all purchases made out-of-state. Thus, I gather I'm supposed to keep track of all my mail order purchases and compute sales tax on this amount to add onto my State Tax. Suuuurrrre. Similarly, even if I buy a car out of state (which I did, from my father in Va), I must pay sales tax on that car when I first register it unless I have a signed statement from the seller stating that he is an authorized car dealer and has collected sales tax on the purchase already. Of course, you can always lie about the amount you paid...(not that I would EVER recommend that!) Doug Burton ATT-CP Indianapolis inuxg!burton
