Hi Jim,
That creepy comment to Ron was from me
based on the below info in turbo tax. I was not able to claim a deduction this year for other reasons, but I did plan to pursue this with a tax attorney based on the TurboTax FAQ for next year's taxes. So I too am very interested in anything folks have to say on this topic.
Perhaps "purchased over the internet" has a more precise definition, but I think our RF transactions were along the lines of an ebay purchase with a payment by check via USPS.
Best Regards,
Al
