These idiots in Trenton even made the shipping and handling rule idiotic - I run a business that has a small internet site. Not all shipping and handling is taxable, only that portion of the s&H for items that are taxable is taxable-get it? So if we send out some clothing (not subject to tax)and some office suppy items (subject to tax)only the portion of the shipping and handling devoted to the office supplies is taxable. It was so nice of them to tell us we can use either the % of cost on the order or the %of weight of the items to determine the taxable percentage. Of course, my commercially prepared e-commerce program has only two settings - tax shipping, do not tax shipping. So now we have to figure the tax manually until the software vendor does an enhancement.
I don't feel sorry for NJ, they got what they voted for even after being warned.
