Actually, Massachusetts has a law that says anything mail-ordered out-of-state you have to pay the sales tax. It does not require the retailer to do it unless they have an operation in the state.
To my understanding, the California law is the same as this.

Pennsylvania is the same. The tax is on the purchaser. If the seller has a physical presence in the state, they are required to be an agent of the state and collect the tax.
