My understanding is that etsy and Amazon are paying the states but eBay is not. The Washington state law is that taxes are only to be collected by sellers doing $10,000 annually in sales. I was just charged tax by a seller who has not sold anything in over ten years. He was stunned by eBay doing this automatically. He called them and they refused to remove it.
For those of you who have your heads buried in the sand, your government, at every level, is constantly working on new ways to take every cent in your pocket.
