You should have business license and reseller license to setup at legit card shows. If you are a promoter and dont ask for those items from dealers you could get in big trouble with state that you are in. If you setup at show in x state you need to file a sales tax return for your sales in that state unless you get a resell certificate from buyer. Im shocked that more states that are broke dont crack down on these shows given how often they audit business for sales & use tax. There is so much unreported sales going on at a show that state dont get any part of that action. This is why ebay had to do this years ago and file sales taxes for all of your sales unless buyer provided ebay with reseller certificate. I wonder sometimes with all these big dealers that setup across the country if they actually file sales tax returns by state.
