Talonz Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 I would like to start purchasing some whoesale parts from a local dealer and would like to avoid paying sales tax since I will be reselling these items. Can anyone give me a quick / dirty run through on what I need ? Do I need to do a DBA first? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 I believe for what you're talking about, you just need a resellers tax id, which for a one-person operation in NY, is usually just your SS#. How to get it officially or verify what I'm saying, I have no idea where to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paying the sales tax might be easier if you can stay under the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had a few purchases lately for almost $1000.00 each...Thats almost 90 bux to ALbany Would it be that big of a deal to have a resellers ID? Would I have tons of paperwork to do ?

If you get a DBA you may need a commercial bank (they are not all commercial banks) good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
