The same old gloom and doom about brick and mortar business. If that is true, why BBY computer retailing is booming? Why the interNUTS are going down everyday? Online shopping will need to pay tax very soon, the Fed will not let this revenue source to slip away for much longer.

In the future you will have to pay tax on those items from e-tailers.

If what you are saying is true, then Sears, Home Depot, and every other retail store is going to close. Maybe you just don't understand that some people want it today, some people have questions for sales people, some people like to see what they're buying. TRy returning something to an e-tailer. By the time you pay to ship it back plus the shipping costs you paid in the first palce, you might as well keep the damn thing.
