    Never said it was a bad system in general. But as a normal citizen not engaging in business I think paying taxes possibly 4 times (federal income tax, state income tax, sales tax when first bought new, sales tax when sold as used) on the same item is wrong.

        You’re right but, If you bought the bike years ago there’s a strong chance you no longer have the receipt/invoice.
