@ebertchicago yea ebert Illinois needs more taxes.
@ebertchicago I was an affiliate as well, and I'm not too pleased that they are now refusing to pay IL residents, but they'll take MY money
@ebertchicago i'm with you (again)
@ebertchicago Amazon still isn't going to collect sales tax in Illinois, they will stop doing business with Illinois affiliates.
@ebertchicago Except Amazon's not going to pay the sales tax ever because they're just going to cancel all IL Amazon Affiliate accounts
@ebertchicago For the first time in my life, I disagree with the greatest movie critic of all time.
@ebertchicago usually I agree with you but not on that #amazon.
@ebertchicago if they did that, they would lose many international customers such as myself.
@ebertchicago I support the law also. I am in Tx and when I did mail order to Tx res I had to pay the sales tax even though a web sale
@ebertchicago Taxes suck. We pay too much already. Amazon FTW.
@ebertchicago You don't know what your saying. You've never even posted on the Amazon Discussion Board. You are mis-informed, critic.
@ebertchicago Didn't u get drop notice like rest of us? Onlinestores drop us & R immune from salestax. IL gets $0, stores still must compete
@ebertchicago I would be Ok with Amazon collecting sales tax. It would make my state tax return easier.
@ebertchicago Please read this to be better informed about HB 3659. You soon may be dropped as a Amazon Affiliate. http://blog.shareasale.com/2011/03/10/go...
@ebertchicago Besides, how is Amazon wronger than other out of state stores? & how does killing aff mktg in IL increase local sales?
@ebertchicago 2 wrongs don't make a right.
@ebertchicago Besides, sales tax "savings" R often erased by shipping costs. YMMV but I shop online for more choices, not to save sales tax
#amazon @ebertchicago @neilstanding Does anyone give their fair share any more?
@ebertchicago Amazon will just stop Illinois residents from being associates. See http://www.9news.com/news/story.aspx?sto...
@ebertchicago Well...then I guess you know that you're not an Amazon Affiliate anymore. All IL accounts have been terminated.
@ebertchicago Do u consider self a "physical presence" of Amzn? Fed law: only biz w/ presence in state collects tax. New law: aff = presence
@ebertchicago OK done, love ur work but ur new 2 aff mktg & I suspected you hadn't gotten all details. U should B ex-affil by now like me
@ebertchicago I agree with u
@ebertchicago I respectfully disagree!
@ebertchicago Long overdue. Online sales have been killing local specialty retailers for years.
@ebertchicago however it's killing affiliate marketing in the state of illinois and will force AM companies to close or move to other states
@ebertchicago I'm amazed that a smart man like you thinks the Illinois government didn't just kill thousands of businesses.
@ebertchicago Ditto.
@ebertchicago Amazon may be wrong, but so is Illinois' solution. Maybe an import tax on shipping would work better?
@ebertchicago The law does not require Amazon to collect sales tax, but I'll just assume you misread it.
