Still hoping to hear something definitive regarding how non-dealer tableholders deal with the sales tax issue, since that seems to be a big sticking point regarding York. Is York being selectively enforced, or do private individuals at Allentown go ahead and fill out the paperwork?
In the state where I live, the tax authorities don't mess with private individuals who might sell a few thousand dollars worth of used stuff at swap meets a couple times a year - it's just not worth their time to pursue it unless someone is blatantly abusing it. I consider myself fortunate.
Why is the tax issue and issue with you ?
I don't understand this question; sales tax is not an issue with me, and I didn't say that it was. I don't sell at meets, but I know that it's a big issue with a lot of people who attend York. The reason for my original post was to learn whether or not non-dealer sellers at Allentown need to collect sales tax (turns out that it is) and if it seemed to be an impediment to those folks (apparently it's not).
If I did set up at meets to sell my excess stuff, I wouldn't want to mess around with the additional paperwork, and in my state, I wouldn't have to. But that's a moot point.
