| Ah - then I'll just note that the BL sales tax includes all applicable sales
taxes, including county/municipality.
And Texas does levy sales taxes on shipping and delivery:

After all of these replies you have to start wondering why they call it PERMANENT
marker.
|
Indeed 
Apparently, it mostly means the ink is waterproof: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_marker
(there’s also a “Removal” section in the article).
I guess it’s why marketers are paid the big bucks.

Is this a mistake or if not, what is the rationale for the overcharge?

The sales tax does indeed differ according to county/municipality.

| Do you know if Texas sales tax applies to shipping as well? You might be using
he wrong order total (with shipping vs without) to recalculate the sales tax.

Bumping this because I got no reply on my previous post. A newish user reserved
this part mineavager01 six weeks ago. It still has the status of 'pending'.
|
Um, no.

I don't see anything that would prevent you from submitting the inventory.

the inventory admins from adding it.
In general I know quite a bit about Minecraft in general and have successfully
contributed a couple of the brick built animals to the catalogue so far .
Ask me, I gladly help!
FYI: Here's a knolling picture of this part which I used to build it.

| In your email client, you can configure automatic forwarding based on filters.
The filter would select the emails pertaining to new orders and the forwarding
would be to your partner's email address.

Is there any way to have the new order notifications emailed to 2 separate email
accounts instead of just one? I would like my partner to receive the emails as
well.
Thankyou
