Sales Tax

The amount of tax charged depends on two factors, including the identity of the seller and the location of where the order was shipped. Orders placed by residents of the state of California are subject to 7.75% sales tax. Sales tax is incurred if purchased from another state, and shipped to the state of California. If an item is subject to sales tax in the state to which the order is shipped, tax is generally calculated on the total selling price of each individual item. To identify if you have been taxed or not, your customer invoice should be billed on the lower right-hand corner, just above 'Invoice Total'. If you have not received your order and invoice yet, but would like to find out if you are subject to tax, please contact us with your full name and order number. Though all invoices have 'Shipping & Handling' title on them, most items are not charged a handling expense. This is only for certain items specified on the site. Please see Oversize Orders in our Shipping Policy section.

Tax-Exempt Customers

United State Government Purchasers will have their invoice adjusted to zero sales tax providing a faxed copy of the Federal Tax ID Certificate is provided prior to the order being charged and shipped. All other exempt purchasers need to provide us with a copy of a state resale certificate, exemption certificate, or other acceptable proof of your exempt status for the state where the items will be shipped. If you are not in the state of California, regardless sales tax will not be incurred. Please label your fax: "Attn: Tax-Exempt Form". Tax is not required on out-of-state deliveries.
