    Did ya see this??

    This is sad. This is a comment Jason (owner of Electronicstix based in Utah) had to say about the proposed Utah law to tax sales both in-state and out-of-state via internet sales.

Had a look around, Saw where the High Caliber warehouse will be, Looked for potential housing and warehouse space. I was pleasantly suprised that there is already a strong vaping community there. The city isnt too small and house prices are nice. I am still waiting to see what happens with the bill and the tax etc.. But the way the law sits now.. that is already in place.. if they get a wild hair up their butts.. They can fine me up to $5000 per order i ship out of the state or in the state. Plus legal fees etc.. for EACH ORDER.. well let me tell you 1 day .. if they just pick 1 day.. and do that to all the orders that day we would cease to be a corporation anymore.. It would put me under. So Sadly i may have to move our internet sales and our stock warehouse out of state.. which will make things logistically harder for my 3 stores that will remain in utah. I will eventually open a store in idaho as well though if that happens and i am forced to move.. But i am going to do what i have to do to remain legitimate, and keep my 20 employees working and paid. I have had people call me a coward for saying im going to move the warehouse.. But i dont see it that way i see it as im doing what i have to.. to keep doing what i love. This has put my stomach in knots for the past few weeks.. It makes me sick the crap we have had to put up with every year her in Utah.. Maybe its time for me to get the hell out of this crazy mormon state.. seperation of church and state my ...... Well i guess thats enough rambling for now.. talk to ya'll later!
