Don't worry about if someone needs to send you a 1099NEC. You keep your own good records and report all your income even if you don't get the 1099NEC. Even if you get a 1099 you can just enter your income as Other Self Employment income or Cash or General. I wouldn't even enter the actual 1099.
They need to give a 1099NEC to anyone they paid $600 or more to for the year. But not to corporations or for merchandise.
