If a customer buys an eligible item during the Sales Tax Holiday and later exchanges it for the same item in a different size or color, tax is not to be charged even if the exchange is made after the Sales Tax Holiday.
If a customer buys an eligible item during the Sales Tax Holiday and returns the item after the tax holiday period for credit on the purchase of a different item, sales tax applies to the sale of the newly purchased item, even if it would have been eligible for the exemption during the Sales Tax Holiday.
If a customer buys an eligible item before the holiday period, but returns the item during the Sales Tax Holiday period and receives credit on the purchase of a different item of eligible property, no sales tax is due on the sale of the new item.
