I think it was 7-8 years ago when everyone got nailed for uncertified scales.  This was our first year selling there and nobody hassled us.  I always round down anyway so don't charge exact weights anyway.  We have Verizon phones and they worked great as did the wireless laptop (if I remember right).  Our credit card machine uses another service and it worked OK too.  We sometimes do 70% credit card sales so it is a must for what we sell.  You will see a lot of cash buyers too at Quartzsite.  I received a tax increase notice last month.  Sales tax going up to 11% from 10%.  You can get the AZ tax license ahead of time online and need it to show the Quartzsite town tax people.  They come around selling the Quartzsite temporary licenses.  You have to have both posted at the show.  You should check out Desert Gardens while there.  It is a much more rock oriented show and all the cool people sell there.
