"Excl. Tax" for Digital Downloads in NY?

Kev SF

Hello, I'm new here. I'm trying to purchase the Komplete 13 ultimate collection before the sale ends.

I live in New York State and my understanding is that Digital Downloads in New York State have no sales tax attached. Yet I'm getting an "Excl. Tax" on my checkout bill for $63. Does anybody know if this is a mistake? Or is it some EU thing?

Thanks,

Kev

Thanks Blindeddie.

I've purchased Melodyne from Ceremony and Vocoder from Softube; both digital downloads, and neither had added sales tax.

So I must assume there's something else I don't understand here.
