[quote="Digdug"]Also, I have seen small businesses shop at club stores (Sam's / Costco) and they don't pay tax on items for resale? I guess they pay tax later. Do online stores do this same thing?[/quote]In general, anyone who has a sales tax ID can buy items for resale without paying sales tax at the time of purchase.  However, in that case, one is responsible for paying tax at the time of sale (or use--if you use an item yourself, you are supposed to pay the tax on it).
