I'm finding mixed informatio about sales tax. Do I have to remit sales tax payments to all the various entities or does Zazzle do that for me?

Sales tax is Zazzle's responsibility, not ours, because we're not the entity that is doing the selling, Zazzle is. Zazzle makes the sale and then pays us a royalty and/or a referral fee. So technically speaking, we're not selling anything here, Zazzle is just paying us for the privilege of using of our artwork/designs on products that they sell.

p.s. I'm assuming that you're a content creator/designer like the rest of us, putting your designs on Zazzle products, and not one of the few "artisan sellers" like these folks Plushology®: Makers & Artisans on Zazzle who have a special arrangement with Zazzle to manufacture and ship their own products through Zazzle's marketplace. I have no idea what sort of financial arrangement those folks have with Zazzle.
