January 29, 201412 yr They probably started collecting tax as soon as the started operating in NJ which could very well be a year before the shipping from NJ started. I'm guessing the moment they broke ground they were on the hook for it.
January 29, 201412 yr They probably started collecting tax as soon as the started operating in NJ which could very well be a year before the shipping from NJ started. I'm guessing the moment they broke ground they were on the hook for it. I believe they were "stayed" for something like 6 mos. or so after construction was completed, before they were required to collect tax. Part of the deal they cut, I'd imagine.
January 30, 201412 yr I emailed them and this is the response I got: Hello, Amazon.com works very hard to ensure that customers have a convenient shopping experience on our website. We're disappointed that you have seen such news regarding the removal of the gun items. However, I've forwarded this to the correct team internally. Thank you for the information. We hope to see you again soon. Best regards, Manish K
January 31, 201412 yr Author Ok so i have emailed a AMAZON.com Retailer that i have purchased from in the past asking them if they have any of the hand guards in stock because i wanted to order another set but noticed that they were out of stock on AMAZON.com (THIS IS NOT THE SAME RETAILER IN THE FIRST POST) This is the reply i got from them regarding AMAZON and Gun related items. I have removed some info from the email image for privacy. so based on this reply it seems that Amazon.com is in fact doing something on their end... thoughts and comments?

I have removed some info from the email image for privacy. so based on this reply it seems that Amazon.com is in fact doing something on their end... thoughts and comments? Well, let's put it this way... I maintain a separate Amazon "wish list" of firearms related items (cleaning supplies, CLP, bore snakes, gun safes, even a Sig/Sauer range bag). To date, none of my items have been dropped, and many are still "Sold & Shipped from Amazon.com LLC." Granted we're not talking "magazines, reloading supplies, etc. etc.), but...
January 31, 201412 yr Again, this is hearsay. Items exist on amazon and I can add them to my cart, so I don't see it. Does the source have some communication from Amazon that they can share?
January 31, 201412 yr Vendors are saying different things. I will give you my guess. Amazon doesn't want to be the intermediary for any illegal transaction. It puts them in a bad place. My guess is that they are very, very bad about determining what is and is not legal, and you will not see uniform results in what is going on. I don't use amazon for gun stuff in general. I want to get what I actually want and not have to guess at knock-offs and 3rd party vendors reliability and honesty.

They took my money for an item and sent me a Chinese knockoff. I hope they go out of business. Their word is shit to me. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/58432-got-hosed-on-amazon/
January 31, 201412 yr GRG items were probably removed because they were selling counterfeit stuff Bingo
February 1, 201412 yr GRG items were probably removed because they were selling counterfeit stuff If this is the case, then kudos to Amazon.
February 20, 201412 yr Amazon won't ship an airsoft 1911 to me that's messed up Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
February 20, 201412 yr Amazon won't ship an airsoft 1911 to me that's messed up Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk I thought airsoft guns are considered firearms in new jersey.
February 20, 201412 yr Technically I think they are. But NJ doesn't enforce those. Pellet guns on the other hand...
February 20, 201412 yr I don't get why I couldn't order I ordered on 2 months ago from amazon Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
February 22, 201412 yr I use vendors that are tax free, and free shipping. I have to, I live in New Jersey.
