Or maybe Newegg...

They clearly have not looked at anything beyond the bottom line. Over 95% of the amount for me was purchased on a company cc and sent to a business address. So those are not my responsibility ( I...

This was a very deceptive move On Newegg's part and I will no longer buy from them ! No sales tax was part of their sales strategy.

Income tax, property tax, sales tax ....... all in national top-10 (highest). Companies leaving/closing, more tax hike. The state of CT is in death spiral with no hope.
