Article is out of date

Nevada for example WILL be enforcing a sales tax on Amazon: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303592404577363713539524468.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.131.217.178 (talk) 00:20, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

YES out of date and therefore highly misleading. Users beware!! Sooku (talk) 03:41, 11 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I will be adding lots more content over the next few days. Please do not delete this article.Larrytheordinarydragon (talk) 15:47, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

generic lead -vs- specific title and content

The lead section generically refers to Amazon as an example in a larger issue online taxation, but the title of the article, and the content of the article, are both Amazon-specific. We need an article that deals with the Amazon tax issue, and this logically could be that article. We probably need another different article that deals with taxation of online retailers.. but trying to make them the same is awkward. By just re-wording the single-sentence lead section to be specifically about Amazon, and not just Amazon-by-example, it will match the title and content.

Amazon accepting NC affiliates again

Amazon is now accepting NC affiliates again. They emailed me and said I could sign up again, which I could. I can't edit the page, though, without it being OR. Shanedk (talk) 18:11, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Affiliate referral tax vs end purchaser tax

This article does not make clear the different combinations of tax collection. To use AZ and AR as example:

End-user state. Affiliate state. AR tax law. AZ tax law AZ. AZ. AR NO tax. AZ tax AZ. AR. AR tax. AZ tax AR. AZ. AR tax. AZ NO tax AR. AR. AR tax. AZ NO tax

Notice that the AR law seemed to try to collect tax in three of the four combinations, vs AZ collects tax in only two of the four combinations. Under AR law one combination leads to collecting tax for one sale for TWO different states on the same sale. I am not a tax expert and I could be wrong.

The differences between AZ seem to be that if you simply want to tax the end user of the sale, Amazon collects the taxes. If the state wants to expand into double "source" taxation, then end the affiliate program.

Disclosure: I am not a tax expert. I am a Amazon Affiliate in Arizona. I am in no way making statements that represent any ones views but my own. Kenwboyd (talk) 07:01, 14 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Globalise

Hi - I added a globalise template as there's no reason for this article to focus exclusively on US tax policies towards Amazon, considering Amazon operates globally. There are ongoing controversies surrounding their tax avoidance schemes, especially in Europe, which could be incorporated into this article. 80.192.27.175 (talk) 13:56, 30 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
