Is it something to do with the seller being registered as a bussiness.
We don't have sales tax here in the UK... Instead the theiving bast**ds take 20% on everything and call it
Value Added Tax.

If you're from Illinois and the seller is a buisness in Illinois, Ebay slaps on the tax.  I have bought a few items that were just from average locals and paid no tax, but if they are a buisness, they sock it to you. Oo
