23 Va. Admin. Code § 10-500-280 - Retail Sales; Retail and Wholesale Distinguished.

The sales price alone is not determinative of whether the sale is at retail or wholesale. The fact that a person sells goods, wares or merchandise at wholesale prices, at cost, or at less than cost does not prevent the person from being classified as a retail merchant if the sales fall within the definition of a retail sale.
