    They seem to have a marketing advantage. I found computer upgrade king in virginia also.

    Im amazed how few companies are left doing this.

    CA is one of the most aggressive states when it comes to collecting sales tax from online retailers.

    There Are a lot of resellers here in ca
    Even more right here in the san jose area. I would suspect that gigabyte receives the machines here based on that.
    But very few outside. Years ago there were laptop retailers like xotic pc in ny but they went out of business

    Right, we only add tax on our orders if you are shipping it to Nebraska, since we are located here. Or if you are getting a Sager in California, and it ships from Sager's facility directly to a location in California. PM or email me if yo have questions on this though.
