I don't plan to continue to operate illegal after the February, but I'm not really sure what to do in the mean time.

I believe I'm reading the law correctly which means that all of the items in my shop will be illegal to sell after the Feb date, including clothing, equipment, toys, books, etc.. - anything for a child under 12 (although I'm not sure about things like wipe warmers, monitors, bottle sterilizers, etc.. that a care giver would use for a child is included).

I'm afraid to create a panic, but doesn't this warrant a panic situation???? If we don't liquidate starting now then both my business and the consignors will suffer. I hate to be a pessimist, but do I find it hard to believe that the government is going to overturn this. If we go ahead and start liquidating and create a panic among consignors and customers, how we get back to where we were if they do happen to create exceptions?

I'm lost.
