I heard a claim that somebody had started monitering the internet sales, SheLion. Going to send us a bill for import/state taxes. Have you seen anything on the subject?

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I have been trying to find the thread. It's a PA thing, anyway, but we are afraid that this will rub off on the rest of the states, although I have no idea how they can enforce this. They would have to go after EVERYONE who sells ANYTHING over the NET. This could take 10 years!

Plus, how can it be illegal? It's the American Way to buy cheaper, and thousands of people buy products over the Net to save money. The states are just pissed because they aren't realizing the huge windfall of taxes from cigarettes that they had hoped for. They didn't count on the fact that we aren't all sheeple out here!
