Normally, you only pay sales tax on the retail price of an item as calculated after most discounts (but not all) have been applied. In many states, this is calculated before shipping and sometimes labor charges are added to the invoice. There are a few rare cases where sales tax could be applied on top of another tax similar to a sales tax, such as with the excise tax in Hawaii or the GST tax in VAT tax being applied after the GST tax in Quebec and Prince Edward Island, Canada. I suppose other instances of sales tax on top of sales tax could happen if you, for instance, purchased a car stereo, paid sales tax on it, and then paid a taxable labor charge that was based on the price of the stereo to have it installed. This scenario is not common however.

You don't have to pay the sales tax to her say if she sells it to you for a flat rate of $700. However when you go to switch the title over at the DMV, they will ask you for how much you bought it for and you have to pay sales tax on that amount to the DMV themselves. Hope that helped!
