Many countries won't charge you the tax if you take the item out
of the country. If the vendor ships it out of the country to you, there's
no tax. If you carry it out, you usually pay the tax and file for a rebate.
Details available at the local customs office.

I never tried this as it is too much of a P.I.T.A.
