it would be very irresponsible for those vendors to sell and ship fish to your state and i'm 100% they won't do it, their to established and well known to risk selling you fish without you haveing a permit, if you can give proof of permit they may still sell to you. though i have heard of a case where a less well known vendor did sell to a person in an illegal state and he got caught and was fined BIG time.
