Sales Tax?

Monday, February 01 2010 16:04 |

Written by Benjamin Townsend |

Q: What Taxes will I be charged when ordering from your website?

A: Because we are a New York based company, New York State residents who are having items shipped to their home or business will be charged their local sales tax rate. These rates are based on current NYS Tax laws and are calculated based on your Zip Code entered in your profile. New York State also requires us to collect sales tax on shipping charges.

All other customers having their products shipped to addresses outside of New York State will not be charged any taxes.

If you are a New York based Reseller business or tax-exempt organization please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or call 716-222-0426 PRIOR to placing your order so that we may adjust your account appropriately. We will require a copy of your NYS Reseller Certificate (ST-120) or Appropriate tax exempt certificate.
