Where to buy lenses online tax free (New York)?

[table1349]

Those stores are in New York.

But if you buy outside the state, I'd almost bet NY has a use tax. you would have to pay even if you buy out of state. Most states do.

There are 2 things life that cannot be avoided....Death and Taxes.

I have three word for you. la Cosa Nostra. Death...no. Taxes.....wanna bet.

Check out unique photo.

btw.. I too recommend uniquephoto. They are just one town over from me. On select items, they offer very very reasonable prices. My only complaint is that they tend to be out of stock of a lot of items but at least their website will inform you prior to purchase.

Strange..... certain items will be sold out EVERYWHERE, including Adorama and BH. But uniquephoto will often have it in stock. Then other items that are so common and easy to find everywhere, they seem to be perpetually out. I was in the store a month ago and they had a five 20mm f/1.7 lenses in stock, an item that was so hard to find that Ebay sellers were selling them between $50+ over. I posted what I had found (from my phone) on a forum and 3 sold before I even left the store. I told the clerk the last 2 will be gone before the next day... he laughed and thanked me.

Yes... and my statement wasn't about a single individual's situation. Think larger... that's what's wrong these days... everything starts with "I".

Because that's just how it is. Why think larger? Theres no need to get deep. This thread is about my situation and I is where it starts and ends. You told me to think about it and I explained why a local shop isn't an option. What do you mean by "these days"? As if there was a magical time where every one looked out for the better interest of everyone else and their motives were selfless. Or are you trying to say something else, because I don't know where you are going with your posts.
