Sales tax for merch concerns ( update ) (Patreon)

Some of you have shown interest in the merch option here on patreon, but i know some of you area also concerned that it's going to either make you pay sales tax if it doesn't apply to you yet ( based off where you are located ) or that it will add extra sales tax. I have reached out to patreon staff and for info, and this is the answer i got

"  if you are using patreon's merch for membership service, patreon is taking care of paying sales tax on those merch items, patrons will not pay sales tax on those, but still may be charged sales tax if other items in their tier are taxable in their location "

So what i gather from this is you may be charged sales tax, as per the new rules, however merch items as rewards are not going to charge you sales tax, or add to the tax you may already be paying.
I hope this info is helpful to all you out there who have had this as their main concern towards pledging to those who are giving merch rewards for pledges!

Be sure to comment your thoughts down below and let me know if you have any specific ideas on merch items you'd like to see me create! ( which character, what they're doing, ect. Can't be graphic content, i THINK nudity might be ok, but i'm not sure, my computer mouse went missing and i can't click on everything using my tablet so i can't find what i read about that lol ) 

Update:

I also asked them about what patrons get which merch items, i wanted to know if someone in a higher tier, will get the reward for their tier, and the ones for the ones below their teir, and the answer was no. patrons will only receive the item that is on their exact tier. So if you're wanting multiple merch items, patrons will either have to pledge to each of those tiers at different times for 3 months per- or i would have to add each item to each of the teirs, which you can do.
You're allowed to have multiple items per tier, however each item can only have one image, for example- you can not have two(+) types of stickers at the same time, but i have talked to staff and suggested that idea or letting patrons choose one between multiple available images for the product, so hopefully something like that will be implemented in the near future.
