same here...its funny too cuz if we had paid tax from the beginning it would be a non-issue. they spoiled us in a way...
The law is pretty clear about who gets taxed when during online sales but Supreme must have been working on a loophole. As far as I know, if the warehouse is in CA then they must charge state taxes to residents. But if Supreme said the warehouse is actually in NY (which it is, and that's why all you CA people hate the shipping from Supreme), then they could technically get away with selling their stuff taxless. Unfortunately, Supreme DOES have a store in CA (The LA shop) and that's probably how they hooked them back into taxes since they have a physical presence in the state even though products don't ship from there.
Not to reiterate too much of what I said already, but that's probably part of the reason they DON'T have a warehouse in LA. In order to claim they should not be taxed, everything would need to ship from the CA warehouse, but the state probably caught on to the game (And the amount of money they bring in weekly) and said "f that give us our money *****." It would make sense NOW for them to get a warehouse in CA since it won't matter anyways...forreal, and then all of a sudden..WE get hit. And whats worse about it is we still have to wait for items to ship from NY
They dont even ship from the LA store; being a CA resident, I would think they would do that by cutting down process/shipping time.

you took the last XL in the plaid pull over that I wanted
Yeah, I get it. But it has always been the case that online and in-store stock are separate. Would be cool if they just got a warehouse in CA now. Would mean that anyone in the country could get Supreme gear within ~3 days. Only problem is that it would be tough to determine at time of sale which warehouse should handle the order and ship it (especially for states right on the line between CA/NY). Not a big problem, but one nonetheless.
Did I at least get it all right? I want a 100 on my CA Tax test.

someone even bought the last XL in the snap front too, that was still in stock the last time I checked.
Yeah it's like eBay charging commission on shipping to prevent abuse of listings by hiking the shipping price up to avoid fees. At the end of the day, everyone who uses eBay the way it should be used is getting screwed on 10% of shipping charges unless they increase their shipping cost to account for that loss. That money is being used to deliver the product, why you take commission on it?!
I asked to be on the list too. XL, black, any design
My bad b, didnt see the other post regarding the no go
