I bought clothing from Walmart online (I live in NJ) and there was sales tax charged. There is no sales tax on clothing in NJ. I figured this was an error and would be fixed when it shipped. When I shop online in any other site, Target, Etsy, eBay, I am ONLY charged sales tax on items that are taxed in NJ. It's not determined by where the item is SENT FROM, as many come from across seas where they have NO TAX...yet I am rightfully charged if it is a taxable item in NJ at NJ's tax rate. My request for a refund was denied as Walmart claims it can charge tax based on the merchant's state, not the point of sale. NO OTHER ONLINE SITE DOES THIS! Here is the review I am posting on every social media site I can and will be contacting the BBB and news media. People have a right to know how Walmart is basically stealing from people, and especially in these times, that is beyond reprehensible. BEWARE! When you buy clothing from here, Walmart charges you sales tax, even if your state doesn't tax clothing. They CLAIM it's because it is being shipped from a state that does have it! With people being as hard hit as we are now, this is another truly *** greedy robber baron move on the part of Walmart. When I buy clothes from ANY OTHER place I am not charged, as my state NJ, doesn't tax therm. The tax is to be collected at the POINT OF SALE and the state tax where it is being SHIPPED , not where it's shipped to. Please share this so people know what dirtbags this company is! I filed a dispute with paypal and was denied. Here is their response: Please note I think they are wrong, as NO OTHER online seller does this, Paypal offshores their customer service, so the response you get is very often wrong. I can't be bothered fighting with PayPal, my fight is with Walmart. I understand in New Jersey there is no sales tax on clothes. When you purchase online you may not be purchasing within the state of New Jersey. You have to pay whatever fees are associated with purchasing wherever the merchant may be located. PayPal would not be able to fight the legality of this dispute and that is why we denied the claim. You would need to take legal action to pursue this further. Please feel free to share this on any social media you use, I know I am! User's recommendation: DO NOT BUY CLOTHING HERE! Monetary Loss: $9. Preferred solution: Refund of tax charged illegally. WalMart Cons: Slimy ethics, Illegal charges, No response from company to complaints.
