I have to agree with you. There is no real clarity to what products are on the yes or no list.

the Consumer Products Safety Commission on Thursday clarified the measure to say that sellers of used goods are not required to certify that those products meet the new standards.

This is targeted at mass retailers like WalMart.

Read the Florida Today article and was not impressed by the information. I have however just got a clarification from a third party that the new law does not apply to any toy that we would normally buy or sell - it applys to infant toys, stuffed animals or items manufactured by low budget manufacturers. Consignment stores, thrift stores and online retailers are only required to NOT sell items that they know or strongly suspect contain high levels of lead or chemicals used in their manufacture. Hasbro, Chap Mei and the other producers of action figures are budgeted well enough that they will not possess these issues. Thanks Vader9900, I appreciate your information.
