Sales tax on extended warranty?
I'm planning on purchasing an extended warranty and want to give my local dealership the chance to match the prices on hondacuraworld.com. But I notice they don't mention anything about sales tax. Now since many Internet site don't charge sales tax I'm not sure it my local dealer (in California) would be required to or not. Does anyone know if this is taxable?

After posting the first message I checked the Pennsylvania law and they do tax on services. SUre sucks to live in the Keystone State. Terrible property tax rates and some of the worst roads in the country. Of course the dentists love it when you jar your teeth loose driving your TL on their roads

This has nothing to do with whether you purchase the extended warranty online or at a California car dealer or other California location - extended warranties are just plain not taxable in California.

Leave it to the stupid government of California to have confusing, meaningless names for their departments.
