I thought not having to pay sales tax was one of the benefits of amazon along with 2 day shipping?

It is. It's just illegal...

Yea I have several purchases from last year through Amazon that I am going to have to review. My state tax return was my saving grace on the hit I am getting from the federal tax return. The Use tax will claim a chunk of my state return due to all of my online shopping. Subscribing to Amazon Prime pretty much sealed the deal for all of my shopping last year to occur through Amazon.

A lot of people think this.
Another interesting tidbit, if you buy something from Parish A, but live in/will be using said product in Parish B, you may owe the difference in sales tax to your Parish (or conversely you can receive a credit I believe if Parish A sales tax is higher than Parish B's)
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
ETA: A little helpful information
