eBay should disadvantage them in search instead of banning them.   Whip2

I disagree with New York's position that having affiliates in a state constitutes having a physical presence in the state but (for purely selfish reasons Laughing7 ) I do think that all merchants, including eBay hobby sellers, who have an actual physical presence in a state should be required to collect sales tax on intrastate orders and penalized if they choose to disregard the law (even if, like many eBay sellers, their failure to collect sales tax is due to ignorance of the law). 

Am I reading the PeSA board or TT? Happy001

Behead the cheats don't ban them! Start a petition and I'll sign it
