It varies by state but, yes, shipping is taxed in some states.

Depends on the state, but generally yes, the seller is required to charge sales tax on shipping and handling.

shipping and handling taxes are legal if the service is provided by any company other than the US Postal Service.

I haven't been charged by Amazon. Possibly handling charges can be taxed, but I don't see why postage should be. Worth following up on. Thanks for the heads up; I'll be double checking in future and, if I'm going to be charged, I'll look for another vendor.

I assume you're talking about sales tax. That depends upon state law. Every state is different.
