Before you publish: South Dakota and federal rules

Some homework before launch:

• South Dakota’s state sales and use tax rate is 4.2%, and municipalities add their own sales tax on top of it. South Dakota Department of Revenue
• Out-of-state sellers have to collect South Dakota sales tax once they reach the state threshold: More than $100,000 in gross revenue from sales into South Dakota in the previous or current calendar year (the Department’s page lists no transaction-count test). Official source

Each business is different; this is general information, not legal advice.
