Thank you so much for your reply. Unfortunately, NY state sales tax rules are much too convoluted for PayPal’s zip code system since they vary by county. This means that in order to properly calculate the exact tax, one needs to know the physical address + the zip code of the buyer. Over or under charging the tax is against the law. This forces me to manually figure our the tax and invoice the buyer after the’ve placed an order. Unfortunately, this cannot be automated.
As a workaround, I thought I could use eStore’s shopping cart to gather final amount and send it to PayPal for authorization. Since the buyer would enter his/her shipping address inside PayPal, I could then manually figure out the exact tax, readjust the authorized amount, then capture the funds. What are your thoughts?
Thank you.
Is there any workaround you can think of? I really like the plug-in but need this functionality to adjust sales tax according to NY State tax rules after buyer’s funds have been authorized. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
