The sales taxes are something to be paid on every deal; either sales tax or use tax to your home state, unless you are buying as a dealer for resale. I always factor that in.
With a typical AH I just assume BP + sales tax + 5% for shipping as the surcharge on the bid. Around 35% on average. Really dissuades me from making casual bids on stuff I don't really want.
