California Sales Tax
|
|
| |
 |
|
| |
Stores that have a “real” store in California or web stores that are located in the State of California are required to collect sales tax of 8.25%. If this applies to your order we will revise your invoice to add the sales tax and charge you accordingly. At the last page of checkout you are required to check the box that indicates that you are aware that California sales tax may be added to your order if applicable. Even though your order will be shipped outside of the USA, it is shipped to our California depot first and as such the stores HAVE to charge the tax. (you can find out beforehand if the store you are buying from charges CA sales tax by checking out their customer service or help pages). |

Domestic Shipping |
|
| |
 |
|
| |
(shipment of your order from the store you are buying from to our depot) There are certain stores that offer free shipping. Most stores however charge a shipment fee. Since your parcel has to be delivered to our depot first it is likely that there will be a domestic shipment fee. If this applies to your order we will revise your invoice to add the domestic shipment fee and charge you accordingly. |

Shipping and Handling Fee |
|
| |
 |
|
| |
Our shipping and handling fees are not separate. They are combined on your order and are automatically calculated by our system and depend on the total amount we spend on your behalf and how many items are in your order. If your order has multiple items a small extra shipment fee will be added for each item. Prices vary per store and per country. Each country has its own shipping base fees. So the best way to find out how much your order is going to cost is to actually put the order through our calculator. (You will be able to see your total before your order is final and at that point you can decide if wish to place the order or not). Our handling and processing fee is calculated over the total we spend on your behalf. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Multiple Store Orders |
|
| |
 |
|
| |
An additional handling fee of $7.50 per store will be added to your order but ONLY if you are buying from more than 2 stores. |
