Is sales tax due on items sold at an auction?

The best resource for determining whether an auctioneer is acting as a retailer under Illinois law and must collect sales tax on any item of tangible personal property being auctioned is our Illinois Sales & Use Tax Matrix (IDs 1029 and 1030) and 86 Ill. Adm. Code Section 130.1915.
