I saw this on the news this morning, but I couldnt find any actual specific link to this on a mainstream news source, just bulletin board rants...
but the basic thing is that a law going into effect on 2/10/09 Prevents The Sale of any foriegn made childrens toys or clothing that has not been tested for lead.
Sounds decent right? Unfortunately, This includes RESALE of it as well, and doesnt grandfather items that have already been made... So if you buy childrens clothes at a consignment shop? Illegal for them to sell it after 2/10. If you like to buy vintage toys off ebay? Illegal. Which also means consignment shops, goodwill shops, etc will lose a shit ton of business.
