yeah, the legalities of the whole deal are this

you and whoever else runs that store with you are legally considered a sole proproetorship, or a partnership. that means that any income you get from that you are supposed to report on your taxes as personal income.

the downside is this, that if anything happens because of that store and you get sued, the store and you are one legally. you have unlimited personal liaibility for it, which means you could loose everything. not all that likely considering the size and nature of your store.

if you ever wanted to go bigger, i would recomend incorporationg as an S corporation or an LLC which will cfreate a corporate veil and protect you and your personal assets from any liigation. downside is that taxes are like 28-33% of profits.

also i dont thikn that angelfire will let you do that that without upgrading your page to a paid page...

You will need to register for a retail license/tax id. Here are some links for registering tax ids according to the states http://www.worldwidebrands.com/wwb/tax_popup.asp. Then you need to open an bussiness bank account.

Then you need a merchant account for your website to recieve payment from you customers. Paypal works fine for some people. You can read up some more legal stuff here http://www.worldwidebrands.com/wwb/rc_legal.asp.

If you arent good with web design, I suggest a open-source shopping cart like http://www.zencart.com/ or http://www.oscommerce.com/. You'll will need a webhost that support PHP and MySQL. A good host I like is godaddy.com. Hosting plans start at $3.99 a month. The economy plan is more then enough.

I hope this helps and good luck.

I would always recommend going with some kind of corp (such as an LLC) to protect you personally from liability. Each state has different corp laws... Nevada is one of the better states from a protection of the business owner standpoint. You can do it all online... couple hundred bucks setup and you are good to go. Some states have yearly fees while others do not. You will also being paying a small fee for a resident agent in whatever state you incorp, if not your own state.

yeah incorporating is the way to go, althoouhg you dont need a tax id number if youre not running one (you just use your Social security number)

i just off the phone for filing a llc out in good ol' nevada a few minutes ago. its nice knowing that itll keep me from getting sued.

having an online store like this?





now something no one has mentioned and given the target audience, one thing
is of concern, you have a listing for a pipes page in which you've stated
All pipes sold have had their mouthpieces sterilized, but no other
cleaning has been made


where the concern comes in is that if any of these pipes have residue fo an
illict substance you can and probably would be prosecuted for interstate
trafficking of a controlled substance should an LEO get their hands on it

selling a second hand pipe is fine, but know your source and clean it well

Another important thing... if you are selling pipes of any kind you have to include a warning that they are being sold purely for tobacco use only. If you do not include that disclaimer, you can be busted thanks to Operation Pipe Dreams.

really, as for pipes you get in a lot deeper when you send anything across state lines.

thats why op pipe dreams worked, beacuse once you pass a good or service over state lines, it becomes "interstate commerce" and is regulated under the interstate commerce clause, which allows federal jurisdiction on things that would have otherwise been solved within the state.
