In Response To: 100% Illegal (emildlux) : I'm guessing by 'sensitive' you mean illegal and from what I understand it's
: Sort of... It's sort of like cutting off the tag from your matress. It is
Federal regulation of mattresses began in 1900 when the content of many mattresses remained a mystery. The materials used often carried diseases or were homes for rats and mice. The mattress tags appeared initially to list the contents. Over the years, the content issue was abandoned in the interest of selling first-hand vs. second-hand mattresses. Thus a warning was required on the mattress tag, "DO NOT REMOVE UNDER PENALTY OF LAW." Because the warning was in bold, large letters, the federal government discovered that many consumers were unwilling to remove the tags for fear of prosecution. Given the lack of understanding, the federal government changed to wording on the tags to, "THIS TAG NOT TO BE REMOVED EXCEPT BY THE CONSUMER." The result has been a decline in questions to the federal agents responsible for mattress content enforcement. Consumers now understand that they can remove the tag without risking the wrath of the law. You know - just to set the record straight. You can resell the mattress without the tag consumer to consumer - not business to consumer. -- Meg
