eBay say that are no extra charges or fees for this service. However, eBay says that sellers need to continue collecting and remitting tax in these states, before this tax collection takes effect, to comply with any applicable requirements they impose.
eBay say that there are no opt-outs for selling items to the states that we are collecting tax for, or out of eBay automatically collecting sales tax for applicable orders. They say that additional US states will likely be added.
