If the tax so much greater than travel costs, buyer should be travelling to the correct city before buying, or the seller should sell one in each city to grab the sale that way. You should never leave 5K or 10K or 40Kg on the table if sales are quick just to be a whole 5% cheaper than the next higher price (to accommodate the tax difference). And of course, the whole point of the OP is that undercutting the 5% tax-rate each time vs 1g each time is just stupid, because you often aren't just giving a 5% discount to a buyer, but more like 15% or 20% before the next sale actually happens. Of course, at that point, it may be a flipper who sees that they can make 10% to 15% profit.
