Sale takes place where product is taken possesion of by the customer not where it is shipped from.

Nope. If I buy a product in New York and have it shipped to Georgia, the product wasn't purchased in Georgia.

Try buying a car in another state and dodging sales tax in your home state

I do it all the time. If I purchase a car in Florida, I don't have to pay sales tax for that vehicle in Georgia.

You are in violation of the law of Ga.

From the Ga. Department of Revenue Sight.

Is tangible personal property purchased over the Internet subject to sales and use tax?

Yes. Tangible personal property purchased via the Internet and delivered to a Georgia address is subject to Georgia sales and use tax regardless of where the vendor is located. Report and remit Use Tax on Form ST-3USE. The tax rate is based on the county where delivery takes place.

Ga. has a Sales tax and or use tax. They consider a product bought in NY and shipped to Ga. to be subject to Ga. sales tax.If the seller doesn't collect the tax you are responsible for it.
