Started collecting on October 1, 2014

Minnesota and Maryland ...and I am sure that they knew the change was coming so they bought everything they wanted to buy ahead of time to save the sales tax burden before the October 1 Deadline.

South Carolina is lined up to start collecting sales tax for Amazon in 2016.

The rest of the states?

So far the other states in the US of A are collecting and have been for a while.

 This is a problem for those states who collect a tax and their neighbors who do not.

There are people who are not happy about the inequality of this whole thing.

Some are buying the a prodect at say $1,000.00 on Amazon and are paying a 6% tax = $60.00.

Their next door neighbor who is across the state line pays nothing in tax for the same purchase because his state does not collect that tax..
