Nobody in that zip code has ordered product yet.  So I don't know what
the "mailing address" will actually show.  If they claim their "mailing
address" is Idaho, I'll not collect. 

Now, I do a post process that looks at the address to figure out what I
should have collected (so I can split local codes that share a common
zip code).  Will be interesting to see as the business grows.

I do ship rather than visit.
