Massachusetts use tax on out of state purchases, and online shopping.

Out of state purchases in more than one state, and online shopping. All together does not reach or exceed $1,000, if that affects Massachusetts use tax.

The $1000 amount refers to a "safe harbor" method of calculating use tax on items costing less than $1000. They are not exempt.
