How do you preserve my anonymity?

Your listings across the 20+ e-commerce sites that we partner with, don’t mention your business name anywhere. Once your items sell, we will remind you to remove any tags identifying your store or location when packaging the items before shipping. This ensures complete anonymity.

Will I be charged tax?

No, Max Retail transactions are considered B2B (business to business) and there are no sales tax implications.
