Buying ball pythons question

[Stewart_Reptiles]

To the original question most breeders have taxes embedded in their price, now if you want to charge taxes or if a breeder charge taxes it will apply if the seller and the buyer are in the same state, but again most elect to embed it in the price to simplify the transaction and have price that remain competitive with other buyers. Now when comes to file taxes all the breeder has to do is calculate the amount of tax he owes to the IRS.

For example: PayPal takes a certain amount out from the seller. I put a down payment of $75 on a snake and the breeder only got $61.

Not quite the seller would have received $72.52 , paypal's fee are 2.9% + $0.30
