Sales tax in the United States on overseas sales: United States | New Seller Space

Hello, I’m a professional and I started selling items on Ebay, and against all expectations I have buyers in the United States. I have no problem with shipping, but with the accounting record for my sale. My item is sold for €136 incl. VAT (so I receive €136 minus Ebay fees), on which Ebay adds a sales tax that it remits to the authorities. So since you can’t pay VAT twice on the same item and Ebay recovers it, I’d say that, from an accounting standpoint, I have to record my sale without VAT, so at €136 excl. VAT? If anyone has a little opinion on the VAT rate to apply to sales abroad, I’d be grateful.
