Beyond a single day, Black Friday has expanded to almost a full week. Online retailer Amazon has currently announced some of their Black Friday 2010 deals. Some state governments are beginning to get involved. They say that the Amazon Black Friday 2010 deals are cutting them out of the loop.

Getting Amazon Black Friday 2010 offers
To sell more during the holidays, Amazon has declared some Black Friday 2010 deals currently. The company wants to get going on it. The Amazon Black Friday 2010 strategy is simple – undercut every other retailer’s Black Friday specials. This whole week, Black Friday 2010 and Cyber Monday 2010 will be added to Amazon. In general, the prices on Amazon.com tend to be between 5 percent and 20 percent below most other retailers.
Worrying from consumers for Amazon Black Friday 2010 coming already
Customers are filing complaints already, almost as easily as the Black Friday 2010 offers went up. Many say that Amazon Black Friday 2010 offers are going too fast. The majority are mad that they are not considered "deals" to some. This is because they only last a few minutes to a few hours. The majority are mad about the "discrimination" Amazon obviously has against buyers with slow internet connections since they’re selling so easily.
Black Friday 2010 leads to gross sales tax at Amazon
Amazon Black Friday 2010 prices are unreal. They seem impossibly low to some. Due to sales tax, Amazon is often able to offer much lower prices to people. Most states allow Amazon to go on without gross sales tax. It is not required on orders. The final price of a product will go down almost 10 percent sometimes depending on this. Any product bought out of state where gross sales tax isn't charged really requires a "use tax" to be paid. Most shoppers don’t pay this use tax, though. That means anything purchased on Amazon is inherently cheaper because states are losing out on the cut that brick-and-mortar stores have to charge. For shoppers, this ends up saving them money on Black Friday 2010. Many states are mad that they are losing cash based on this. The state budgets are going down even more because of this.
