in lucky state there is a grace period between a private sale of the car and the purchase of a new one. so you do not pay sales tax on both transactions.
The other statement you made is correct for my understanding. if you buy out a lease and then sell to carvana for profit, it is a profit. got to pay uncle sam and your state. like any other appreciating asset.
Wait, why would the SELLER pay sales tax on something? That's the responsibility of the buyer isn't it?
