If they drop ship from CA to CA then I believe they will have to charge you CA sales tax.
Saku, can you confirm if this is how it works?
I had some Stoptech rotors ordered for the 350Z from a vendor in FL and I was hoping to save the sales tax being it was purchased there. Just to find out I was charged CA sales tax because they were being drop shipped from City of Industry, CA where Stoptech is located. Sucked having to pay 7.75% sales tax.

A lot of companies have HQ in CA, so we are stuck charging CA tax (in our case it is 9.75%) if the item is drop shipped from CA. But sometimes when we have large orders, like the swift springs, we can ship them to FL via freight and then ship them back to CA to avoid CA tax. As for any orders to FL, even if they are drop shipped from out of state I have to charge local 6.5% tax.
Basically, we can sometimes avoid CA tax to CA customers, so its always good to ask
