Do I have to pay sales tax on my order? The Liberty Bell Museum, LLC, is a Connecticut business located in Connecticut. Any order being shipped within or to an address in the State of Connecticut or purchased by a Connecticut resident and shipped to an address outside of Connecticut is subject to a 6% Sales Tax. Sales tax is applied to the total cost of your order including shipping, as required by law. If you are not in Connecticut or shipping to/from Connecticut, you do not have to pay Connecticut Sales Tax. You are responsible for paying Use Tax to your own state, if applicable (and in most states, it is). Sales tax does not apply to purchases made by the United States Government. In order to document a sale to a U.S. Government or State agency in Connecticut, please provide one of the following:
Other exempt purchasers in Connecticut must provide us with a copy of the State of Connecticut Resale Certificate. The certificate must include the name of the organization who purchased the items. Please fax the certificate to us at 860-256-4468. If the certificate is not received at the time your order is processed, Connecticut Sales Tax will be applied. After that, Connecticut Sales Tax can only be refunded upon receipt of your Resale Certificate. |
The item I want says Out of Stock. When will it be available? If there is an "Out of Stock" message on the product or checkout page, the item is not presently available. Occasionally, an item may show as available, but has been sold out during that day. Updates are made each evening. We will let you know right way by telephone or email, if an item you've ordered is not available. If you'd like to be notified when an item is available, please email us and we will keep you posted. There are a variety of reasons for items being out of stock. At certain times of the year, some manufacturers simply run out of stock (particularly costumes and accessories.) Some of our vendors are craftsmen and artisans who make a limited number of items. Popular items sell very quickly. When items are out of stock, we are constantly working to replenish the item. |
