Answer 1 :
Tax is charged based on the place where you take possession of the purchase. Give it up.
Answer 2 :
Afraid not, tax is charged on the sale in a retail store and has nothing to do with you living in this country or not.
Answer 3 :
Sorry, but that's what it costs to have the privilege of buying it in the good ol' USA.
Answer 4 :
You don't. The US sales tax isn't like the VAT many other countries have, where you can get it refunded if you take what you bought out of the country.
Answer 5 :
No sales tax is not refundable, next time wait and buy in a country where they do not charge sales tax.
Answer 6 :
No, there is no sales tax rebate for taking the property out of the country.
Answer 7 :
