Also even before that it’s not complicated to set the price including tax then deduct the tax from the listed price at point of sale, as it had to be calculated at that point regardless…
Because that is the price of the item. The tax is on the sale. Some states do not allow you to advertise the post tax price. It’s incredibly stupid.
At least that is somewhat reasonable. Internet companies regularly advertise one price and then add a bunch of fees on top that can add another 20% to the cost. The FCC is forcing them to cut that out and they are bidding that they cannot be expected to know what all of the fees will be on each location as if they do not have all that info on their fucking database.
but that’s no excuse for the price seen / shown inside the store to not be the price you pay - especially with electronic display screens now.
