The thing is if New Mexico passes the tax, what would it stop the other 49 states to pass an identical bill. There is cig and alchohol tax in every state so your state could be NEXT.
not as a New Mexico resident. If you do, they (state gov) will find you and make you pay the tax. They did that in Alaska for smokers who bought cigs online cheaper. How much the tax will be who knows, but remember that's on top of sales tax so it would drive a 50 bucks game close to 60 and a 60 close to 70.
"A video game tax has been proposed in New Mexico, that says video games purchased in the state may become subject to an additional tax like cigarettes and alcohol. The tax has been proposed by the Sierra Club of New Mexico who believe that video games should be taxed in order to fund a government campaign to promote outdoor education among kids."
