I don't really remember exactly what it was before. Something like $20, which is about a 10x difference. Either way I guess it is not that bad :) hmm..

People in Seattle must be REALLY nice, though, because if you lived here? You'd be paying that difference, plus interest! I kid you not. And you'd say, "But it wasn't my fault!" and they'd say, "That doesn't matter and it IS your fault that we didn't notice - PAY!" And you'd say, "But how?" and they'd just laugh an evil laugh and disappear into a dark mist. That is how The Man rolls in the Midwest... Wow, that is some miscalculation!

I suspect its a pass-through item for Avalon Bear Creek, and they've been charging the wrong tax rate.
