TLDR: Online sales tax has made short term upgrading too expensive.

 

Upgrading has gotten way more expensive for people in high sales tax states that are charged online tax.

For example, if I were to sell my $5,000 (copy A) comic to upgrade to another (copy B) also at $5,000 but live in a 10% sales tax state...

A same priced upgrade will cost me an additional $1,750 (35%) Sales tax twice, and 15% selling fees.

The 15% was sometimes gained from appreciation or an acceptable penalty.

I find a 35% increase just to break even too much of a demand on our dear old undercopies.

I'll be in that boat come October 1st, Texas sales tax is 8.25, but the boards are always an option...
