Avoid Sales Tax?

[vigilantex69]

Is there anyway to avoid having to pay sales tax on eBay purchases now? I live in South Carolina and they just recently dumped us on a mandatory sales tax Oct. 1. Luckily I can have big ticket items shipped up to North Carolina, but when you’re talking all the time now having to pay $20 on a $200 purchase it seriously SUCKS! 😡😡😡😡

Do you not read ANY of the emails that ebay sends out?

Send them your resell certificate. /story

if he is not a reseller,then he should pay sales tax.
if you show the reseller certificate,which is not yours,and your seller ever get audited and found your resale certifcate to be ⊗⊗⊗⊗,you are in big trouble
