Generally speaking, you get charged the local sales tax where the store resides. I don't think they have the capability of calculating the tax for other locations, and I believe the registers are set up to charge the local tax automatically.
It would be like if you visited the store in person on vacation from somewhere else, you would pay the local tax.
I think some online retailers abide by different rules, but when buying from an actual store via phone, you pay the store's local tax.
