I think that legally, almost all do. But in the example you just gave, 
are ALL houses in these "taxable Idaho zip codes" in Washington? In that 
case you are lucky. In the more general case, those Idaho zip codes 
would also include houses that are in Idaho.

Note that this is early days of enforcement of sales tax for mail and 
internet sales. Not yet time for cases to work their way through the 
courts of people claiming wrongfully taxed or states suing states 
because they argue the tax collected should be theirs.
