Sales Tax & Fees
- Michigan Sales Tax - A 6% sales tax is applied to the selling price of any item shipped within the state of MI (Calculation is made prior to adding S&H fees). This sales tax also applies to items that
are pick-up in person, regardless of what state or country the buyer is from.
- Shipping and Handling- Our S&H fees are clearly visible within the auction listing.
- If you do not see shipping stated, it is possible you are looking at a freight shipment item (see below for more details on freight shipments) or you need to click the shipping and payments tab and enter your zip or postal code to see the shipping costs.
- For all shipments (excluding freight) we charge actual shipping + a very minimal fee to help cover the cost boxes, tape, packing material, and insurance.

Shipping Methods
Freight
- Used for large and/or heavy items that makes it impractical or impossible to ship through any of the above shipping methods.
-
ALL FREIGHT
CHARGES are Paid on Delivery to the freight company. Buyer is to only pay us the item cost, and any applicable tax and pallet fees only - tthere is a 20.00 pallet fee to cover the cost of the pallet, strapping, and wrap.
VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION: We have a pretty good discount with our shipping company, if you have your item shipped to a business and they have an account with the same shipping
company we use, you will
be responsible for all additional shipping charges because if they have an account with the same company, their account will over-ride our account and their discount may be significantly lower than ours. We suggest that if the business has the same carrier as us, that you have the item delivered to your home of pick it up at the dock.
-
Buyers are NOT allowed to arrange their own shipping - NO exceptions.
-
We DO NOT
ship on Saturdays, Sundays, or the holidays USPS does not run.

- Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.
- These charges are normally collected by the delivering shipping company or when you pick your item up, do not confuse them for additional shipping charges.
- We do NOT mark merchandise values below value or mark items as gifts - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.
