NikeShop.com Over Charging NYC peeps Tax
It seems that NikeShop.com thinks the sales and use tax in NYC is 10.2..% instead of the actual 8.375% it currently is.
I was over charged 2 dollars in tax, and they basically said I probably will not get a refund because it's such a small amount.
My guess is their accounting team catches the overage and doesn't send it to NYS and instead gives it to their execs as bonuses. Just a theory.

Over charging tax may be a crime in some states.

Whats funny is when I first called they told me they charge tax on shipping, which is fine but still they are overcharging me by 2 dollars.
But when I look at past orders where I paid shipping tax was not charged to the shipping and the correct amount of tax was charged.
So if they don't charge tax on Shipping I am actually owed 4 dollars.

As the lawyers often say:
"One relevant citation in the case law, or previous legal precedents" ...
may be JoyUnltd's signature here on ABW, which is:
"Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense. Porky Pig"

You should check NY's sales tax statutes and see if sales tax is charged on S&H. In many states, consumers don't pay tax on S&H. |

Cul. BTW, gotta believe Porky Pig said that quote also, considering what a great guy he was, JoyUnltd. :-) How did he create the voices? Here are some very quick, funny examples in this 2 minute 16 second Tonight Show video: http://tinyurl.com/JackMarketingMelBlancCarson |
