Hello,I bought a device on Ebay USA that is stored in Michigan. Unfortunately, the seller does not ship to DE. My brother lives in California and would forward the package. But now I have the problem that in this case the Californian sales tax of 10% is charged. Which actually shouldn’t apply at all, because the device isn’t meant for my brother, and he is only acting as an exporter. Is there any way to either not pay this tax in the first place, or get it refunded retroactively? Thanks and regards
