They required that all merchants have a valid Oklahoma state Tax ID
(if I recall correctly) for purposes of collecting sales tax --
effectively eliminating "casual/amateur" merchanting. But
"professional" merchants should be in the clear, since of course they
already have a valid Tax ID for every state they operate in, are
collecting sales tax on everything they sell, and are reporting it to
the appropriate state authorities.
(Did I manage to say that with a straight face?)
