Costco is a retail store. And No -- will not work for ungating.
Start with the brand itself -- obtain written authorization to sell on HAQM. Ask that brand who are their distributors.

Costco is a retail store, but it IS possible to buy items there as a wholesale account. But make sure that you have authorization FROM THE BRAND before you list anything here, and make sure with the brand that Costco is an authorized WHOLESALE distributor of their products.
(hint, if you're being charged sales tax, it is NOT a wholesale purchase).

True, but I would point out that you can have a resale number on file for certain types of goods, pay retail, and not pay sales tax for those items. So not being taxed isn't an indicator of wholesale.

Hello @Seller_PSEZCDp4dIhLa,
Thanks for reaching out with your question on invoices. Your invoices must come from the brand or an authorized distributor. As Costco is a retail store, invoices are not valid for items that you sell on HAQM. You may find this post helpful as it goes over information on best practices when trying to get approved to sell a brand.
I hope this information is helpful.
