+ Washington State Sales Tax...
We must collect Sales Tax on orders shipped to addresses in the state of Washington. As of July 1, 2008 new state laws changed the way we must collect Sales Tax. The amount of Sales Tax collect is now based on where your order is delivered within the state of Washington. The formula is complex and our on-line ordering system cannot handle the calculations. Therefore, the amount of Sales Tax shown on your on-line order confirmation receipt is only an estimate and the most you can be charged for Sales Tax. When we process your order we will adjust the actual Sales Tax rate based on your actual delivery location Sales Tax rate. The adjusted amount will be shown on the invoice that is included in your shipment.
