Things are complicated when considering applying this to an online price list for example, but applying to individual brick and mortar retail locations, I don't see what the problem with the in store displayed price to be different in different tax jurisdictions.
- jonknee 16y agoWell for starters it would be a lot more expensive to print signs dedicated to the city/county of a store. Price matching becomes tedious too, requiring a calculator.
- winthrowe 16y agoI had no idea that american sales taxes were so byzantine as to have individual city and county sales taxes in so many areas. Although I still contend that price matching is easier, because who really cares what the pre-tax price is, post-tax is what comes out of the wallet.
- jasonjei 16y agoWell, America is large, and there's always been this struggle of Federal Government vs. State Government. And every state is run differently. The less competent ones require more taxes, or, on the other hand, should really be split into two states (e.g California).

- winthrowe 16y agoI was thinking something more of large chain operations that have websites referencing physical stores, like Walmart or Best Buy.
