Why was I charged tax?

Due to federal tax regulations, all retailers that ship out of state are required to collect sales tax for many states that we have not had to in the past, even without a physical presence in that state. Any company that is not currently collecting sales tax for your state is putting the burden on you, the customer. This creates a potential for audit at the end of the year, as states are tracking purchases, as they have a law that allows them to collect the tax.
