I'm not an accountant and this is not accounting advice... Perhaps there is a CA accountant here. I work with accounting software, so it's not an unfamiliar topic to me and I'm not an expert, but then again, I'm not an accountant and this is not accounting advice... :)
My understanding is that it is the delivery location and nexus (does the business has a presence in the delivery state?) that determines the sales tax. I'll probably fly in, enjoy the party (hopefully we'd have one) and then have the bike sent to PA. Or I'd buy it from the "sort of local" RIV dealer, 718 Cyclery, save the shipping but pay NY tax instead. We could do a day trip from LV--it would be a short and I think inexpensive flight. 9 hour car trip is a LONG trip. But, you think you'd be able to tear yourself away from your new baby to save $500? I bet you could get them to ship your bike out right after you leave, so you wouldn't need to wait to long for the reunion. No matter what you decide, it will be FUN, I'm sure!
