I recently bought a smart phone here in California and was shocked at the sales tax charged. It was an HTC Incredible with Verizon service and after the "new every two year" deal and some rebates, the phone cost about $50. However the sales tax was based on the smart phone MSRP of over $500! So that meant I paid about $45 in tax instead of $5. What a rip off!!
Does that seem right? Does that happen in your state also?
Who do you think ends up with all that tax, the state or is Verizon pocketing some of it?
Any experienced protestors ready to jump on the band wagon with me and stop this rip off?
