·8 months agoMake sure you open the account with the name the resale licenses is issued to. If issued to a company, open your business ebay account with that name. You may be the one who can sign it, but the name issued to needs to match otherwise eBay may think you are "barrowing" it. Don't do that.
Also, eBay and other places do not have to accept resale licenses. Even if you are tax exempt and eBay still collects the tax they are required to forward it.
I should add, if you pay unnecessary sales tax you claim it as a deduction on your quarterly sales and use tax form so you do get the money back that way, at least this is how it works in California. Not 100% sure about AG, unless at some point you are charging tax a resold goods in the first place. California is very detailed in what AG can buy tax free....usually it is only products that end up in human food consumption

It should be noted that you'll need an account that only buys products related to agriculture. Otherwise eBay can't determine which of your purchases are exempt and which aren't.
