Anyone else running into an issue where when you go to checkout, Bricklink is
unable to calculate sales tax and then you cannot proceed with the order?

Yeah, I'm getting it too with multiple sellers. Maybe when the site was
down for monthly maintenance the other night, something got accidently "bumped".

It seems to be working again. I just placed an order that wouldn't work
before.

Hi,

Yes, sorry for the inconvenience. Our service was down for about 30 minutes
but should be back and running. Please go ahead and try again!

Thank you,

Still pretty bad. Been trying to assign shipping costs all day. Finally got
those to work, but then I could not invoice. Sometimes clicking the invoice
icon got the error of can't compute sales tax despite it already having been
computed. Sometimes it got to the edit-invoice page, but clicking send-invoice
still errored out.

Solved: Click invoice icon 15 times. About 5 of those get to the invoice page,
all after a long delay (same delay if I do just one click).
Of those 5, one might work. It's hit and miss.
