If ordering on-line, your freight charge will be incorrect (too low).

   AK, HI, VI, PR, MP, GU, AS, APO  are shipped via USPS.

Colors:  
Remember that your browser may not always show true color.
    Due to variations in monitors, scanners, browsers, and dye lot changes by
   manufacturers, we cannot guarantee exact color matches with what you see
   on your screen or even with what you received from us in a previous order.  We 
   also cannot guarantee that colors of a different size will exactly match eachother.
   If absolute color fidelity is required, then either drop by or do not order
   those items from us.

Sizes:
Sizes can and will vary slightly.

Samples:
    We do not provide samples due to several reasons:
 We simply haven't got the personnel to fill what would be a huge number of requests.
We don't have "open" stock.  For example, if we cut a few inches off a roll of ribbon,
that makes that roll un-sellable.  We understand many customers would like color matching,
but there is simply no efficient way for us to accommodate you.

Donations:
We receive requests daily for donations or discounts.
It is impossible for us to accommodate any/all these requests.
We donate to a number of local schools and civic groups
and can simply not fulfill any other requests.

Pricing/terms/specifications:
   
Prices, terms, and specifications (i.e.: colors, sizes, materials) 
   are subject to change without notice. Prices are not subject 
   to negotiation.

Minimum order:
   There is not, and there has never been a minimum order requirement.
   There is not a fee for orders under a certain dollar amount. 
   We want your order, large or small.

Acceptance of orders:
    We reserve the right to accept or reject any order, or to change the terms    
    of any order.    

Terms & Payment:
   We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover.  We do not ship c.o.d.
   This does not guarantee that we will accept any and all credit card orders.
   Do not send credit card numbers via e-mail.
   You may safely transmit your orders using our secure on-line order form.
   We also accept wire transfers.  Please call or e-mail for routing instructions.

Wire Transfers
Make sure you call/email to receive an exact amount required.
We will email that cost to you.

Please note that any wire transfer orders under $300
will incur a wire transfer fee (this is charged to COD Wholesale by our bank) of $15.
This is in addition to the invoice total. If appropriate, this is included in the amount to be remitted.

We suggest emailing us the day you make the wire transfer.
 Sometimes our bank takes a day or two to notify us about transfers
and we'd like to ship your order as soon as possible after the verification of transfer.

Sales tax:
   
Outside of California: sales tax is not charged and we do not 
    need your resale or seller's permit number.

    Within California: sales tax will be charged unless you have a 
    resale permit.  Please provide this number in the "comments" section
    of the order form when you check out if ordering on-line.  We will mail
    a resale certificate which will need to be filled out, signed, and returned. 

Government agencies and schools:
   Net 30 Purchase orders are accepted.  
   F.O.B. point is our warehouse--not "destination".
   Within California, schools and school organizations generally must pay sales tax.
