I wonder why someone hasn't started a delivery business built around the sales tax disparity between the 2 states for large items such as this.; June 22, 2011 at 5:50 PM

70miles so like $8 in just gas.

Some people have too much time on their hands.

A delivery service you say? You'd have to bill about $150 to deliver a fridge to think about being "profitable", then factor in truck maintenance, insurance, etc, you'd be losing money with every delivery.; June 22, 2011 at 6:19 PM

It takes you 90 minutes to go 37 miles? And you're worried about 8 bucks in gas? You would still be over 60 bucks in savings.

60 minutes to lewes equals one dollar a mile. Round trip comes to 50 cents a mile. That's good money to most people.; June 23, 2011 at 1:43 AM
