  I'm from Illinois and I'll pay closer attention the next thing I buy.

  They are collecting sales tax for coins in states that don't have tax on coins.
  It's the new and improved ebay.

  If you're buying coins, that rate should be 0%. Most of Crook County is 10-11%, so if that's where you are and eBay is now collecting local sales tax, that's why so high.

  Coins are still 0%. It's just everything else that they are collecting 10%

  Sounds like a wet dream for a class action lawsuit. I’m sure this will happen at some point in the future....
