Used merchandise never has sales tax. There’s always an interesting tension at the flea market with people selling only used items and the ones with gray market items (e.g. “durasil” batteries which are not alkaline, cheap tools from China, etc) The latter are supposed to collect sales tax but many do not or underreport.
