Sales Tax in Shipping Estimator a good idea?
Hi all,
A customer from my state doesn't see they'll be charged sales tax until they get to checkout. I thought it'd be helpful to customers to return a line in the shipping estimator with sales tax, if applicable (by zone). A fairly small bit of code in the tpl_modules_shipping_estimator.php file perhaps? How big an effort would this be?
Of course it'd be based on your zones/tax classes/tax rates all set up.
This would allow them to see it while in cart before signing into account or getting to checkout. Some may think this would increase SC abandonment but is it any better to find out during checkout? Thoughts?
