No sales tax collection for orders shipped outside of New Jersey

We have the same sales tax collection requirements as any other retailer. Internet retailers are generally required to collect taxes where they have a physical selling presence. If they do not have any such presence, they are not required to collect sales taxes. We only have a presence in New Jersey so we do not charge tax for orders shipped to states outside of New Jersey such as California (7.25% tax) or Illinois (6% tax).

Sales tax collected only for New Jersey orders

As required by law, we only collect sales tax on orders shipped to New Jersey.  We collect this  7% New Jersey sales tax on your behalf.

How New Jersey tax is calculated for NJ customers

If an item is subject to New Jersey sales tax, tax is generally calculated on the total selling price of each individual item. In accordance with state tax laws, the total selling price of an item will generally include item-level shipping and handling charges, item-level discounts, and an allocation of order-level shipping and handling charges and order-level discounts.

The tax rate applied to your order will generally be the combined state and local rate for the address where your order was shipped. Therefore, the sales tax rate applied to your order may be different for an order shipped to your home address than it is for an order for the very same items shipped to your work address.

Note that many factors can change between the time you place an order and the time of credit card charge authorization, which could affect the calculation of sales taxes. The amount appearing on your order as Estimated Tax may differ from the sales taxes ultimately charged.

For example, tax law changes may occur between order placement and credit card charge authorization that could result in an increase or decrease in taxes charged. We also offer a number of shipping options that could change the calculation of sales tax. Thus, we cannot know with certainty how allocations of shipping charges and promotional discounts will be made to individual items when we quote estimated taxes at the time your order is placed.

Non-USA international customers: If you are an international customer, you may be charged some import taxes and fees by your government when your package arrives. Our company does not collect these taxes.


The Internet Tax Freedom Act (ITFA) has been renewed through November 1, 2014.

Please note, the ITFA was primarily intended to prevent state and local governments from imposing new or discriminatory taxes on Internet transactions and on Internet access. Despite the name of the Act, ITFA does not preclude state and local governments from imposing existing sales tax collection requirements on companies selling over the Internet.

For states imposing sales or use taxes, your purchase is subject to use tax unless it is specifically exempt from taxation. Your purchase is not exempt merely because it is made over the Internet or by other remote means. Many states require purchasers to file a sales/use tax return at the end of the year reporting all of the taxable purchases that were not taxed and to pay tax on those purchases. Details of how to file these returns may be found at the websites of your respective taxing authorities.

Colorado, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee and Vermont sales tax

For those customers purchasing from this website and shipping to Colorado, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, or Vermont:

This law is currently the subject of a legal challenge brought by the Direct Marketing Association and others. In the meantime, the U.S. District Court has suspended enactment of the law while the legal challenge proceeds.
