Any normal sales taxes will be applied to your order.
(why?)
Normal sales taxes will be applied to your order because
we don't recognize your email address as belonging to a tax-exempt institution.
(Please make sure you're using your institutional email address!)
If you expected to be tax-exempt and can wait a day or two,
please follow these instructions,
then wait for confirmation before placing an order.
If you didn't expect to be tax-exempt, you can ignore this message.
Any normal sales taxes will be applied to your order.
(Although you seem to belong to a tax-exempt institution,
your order is being delivered outside that institution's home state,
where their tax-exempt status no longer applies!)
Your order is probably sales tax exempt, because we recognize your email address
as belonging to a tax-exempt institution.
I am submitting it as a representative of a tax-exempt institution,
for business rather than personal use.
(see our policy)
To comply with legal requirements, all emails must go to your email address.
Please check those emails. We cannot substitute or "carbon copy" any non-institutional address!
Unless your order is for personal use, you're about to tick off your lab secretary or bookkeeper!
That person is probably going to be unhappy that you were charged tax on this order. You may not get reimbursed.
Please take a minute to go find out your tax exemption code -- it will save everyone some time and effort!
