Okay, I feel bad for (yet again) lurking for weeks then just jumping in...but not bad enough not to do it. ;)
Anyone else been hit on by a total stranger on Facebook? I got this friend request from some random guy saying he's looking for friends or something. Ridiculously enough, one of the things that most bugs me is his complement about my "beautiful smile" when my profile pic has (as many of you can vouch) at best, a smirk. Anyone else ever have this happen and be, I dunno, legit? Or always skeevy?
It's my understanding that it goes by whether or not they have a retail store in DC, not if they have the item in stock.
Vortex, maybe warehoused in DC, even if not currently retailing anywhere there?
I thought that you didn't get charged tax if you were ordering something to be shipped from a different state.
If they have a retail location in the ship location, they have to charge tax.
If they have a retail location in the ship location, they have to charge tax.
Boo! Then they shouldn't charge me shipping! I would go to the store, but they don't have it in the store. it's not my fault! I want my $1.19 back!
What ChiKat said. It doesn't matter where they ship from, just whether or not they have a location.
But yeah, you should be able to have it shipped to the store for no cost. I've run into that frustration before.

I'm not on FB, but I'm on another social network (Couchsurfing), and it happens there too. In fact, I think it's a part of every social network. In CS we can report it as spam, and after several warnings and complaints the person will be kick out of it. I never used it, for my confidence in the network comes mostly from the way I behave in it - as in, the very frank, specific and short answer they'll get if they've fooled me to think they're legit.
I can be mean.
Aims, your mother is hysterical.
smonster, I am looking appropriately shocked. (I never kissed a boy, not even at two-and-a-half. I did have a best friend who was a boy in primary school and my father disapproved. He really shouldn't have worried.)

Probably some spam scam, Epic(although you do have a beautiful smile!)

I don't envy his successor. It reminds me of the Onion article after the Presidential election here in 2008. Black Man Given Nation's Worst Job
