Interesting discussion I stirred up here. So the WA Dept of Revenue should be searching everyone that lives in Vancouver, WA and frisking them for their grocery receipts to see what they bought in Portland, right? I'm just going to have the rifle shipped to an FFL here in WA just so its not on my conscience and I'm within the law, especially when it pertains to firearms. But sheesh!.....kinda makes you wonder what they CAN'T tax you on.
Since the question here is about a "usage tax" I don't know what the requirement is for the seller, but if the transaction occurs in another state, Washington should have no standing regarding taxes.
The only way to avoid the tax is trade--just like a car. Otherwise, you're stuck.
When it comes to things like vehicles many people in private sales give the DOL a very different price for the "value" then what was actually paid. Odds of you getting caught and fined are low.

This is a hoot coming from a state that has income tax hahahahahaWashington residents can take their chances, or not, on not declaring their tax obligation. It's their choice. I'm just glad I live where property taxes have limitations and we have enough sense to refuse to authorize a sales tax, much less things like a "use" tax.
This is a hoot coming from a state that collects 122% of the revenue per capita vs. Oregon! You just pay a whole bunch of small taxes and fees that are harder to manage than income tax. Many of these taxes are hidden from the consumer. At least we can plan ahead to manage our tax burden.This is a hoot coming from a state that has income tax hahahahaha

The DOR requirement that FFLs collect sales tax in WA is political BS. They only introduced it to screw with gun owners in my opinion, because they can. Also, they tax all firearms as gifts, but don't tax other items like cars in the same scenario.

It is also illegal to avoid taxes that are due.
Like vehicles. Buy a 1935 Lincoln for $68K, you're gonna pay that $6,800 tax. If you bought it out of state, the DOL will sock you for the tax when you try to register it in Wash.It is also illegal to avoid taxes that are due. Just because you transfer the gun in OR you are still legally bound to pay the tax on that item in WA. This is for any item.
