That must be something relatively new. Per the Scanner Master Help Pricing and Billing webpage: "Do I have to pay sales tax? You are required to pay sales tax if your products are being shipped to the same state as our warehouse (MA). This does not apply to tax exempt entities."

Some places are eating the tax on Internet sales.

That was for a couple of item's I purchased in August of 2020...
I questioned them on that... They said that there are several states that they have to collect tax on now if purchased in one of those states...
Don't remember what the other states are though...

I still think that HP-I and HP-II have the best user interface for a scanner. With a touch display and icons for service types and excellent speaker audio for home use, and as it can handle APCO25 phase 2 it should just as well also handle DMR that I wish could be shoehorned in there.
