i re-read my post I see where the confusion is. On the store front I am using, individual tax rates were set. I had to go in and manually change the setting to delete taxing individual states. I am incorporated, I do have a tax ID number, and I do charge tax on items shipped to New York ONLY...

Been learnin' alot in 11 months and I am in fact incorporated. BTW, for those of you that had a problem with unusually high tax rates on my site, I sat here all day and night and finally set the tax rates for each individual state. Sorry for any inconvenience. I am now working on the navigation...

Thanks so much for the feedback. I am aware of the problem with the navigation. There is so much to do with this site and I really wasn't ready to go public just yet. I did write this response earlier to another post: Stuey, an EXCELLENT SUGGESTION! I have viewed other sites and I’m trying...

I am sorry, I thought I answered this question to you in an email. First of all as I stated in several responses the website is NOT finished and individual states sales tax rates are not set. I am working on other aspects of the website and set individual state tax rates as people from various...

Stuey, an EXCELLENT SUGGESTION! I have viewed other sites and I’m trying to avoid all the clutter and unnecessary B.S. I see they place on their home pages. I did consider setting up on AMAZON as well, I wasn’t really ready to go public yet, but thanks to my brother’s “help” I was throw into the...

Thanks for the encouragement and the suggestions for the site! I set the maximum number of return results at 30 when I had no idea how to figure out categorizing items. In the beginning, any search word resulted in a return of all 6000+ items. The Customer is ALWAYS right! I have reset to...

Lastly, I would like to thank ALL of you who have posted any kind of comment about my site. Although it is not finished with the appearance of the home page, I have had 123 hits in the last 7 days resulting in 31 new orders! There are obviously some of you interested in saving money! Thank you...

FINALLY! I appreciate that comment!... and if you read the previous posts, NOT one of the other web companies handles the product directly, if they tell you they do, it’s a lie! As for seeing the product, I lived with most of these products all my life, all I need to know is my customer...

No praise for being priced lower than everyone? Give the little guy a chance! I promise, when I get as big as the other guys you mention, we’ll STILL all be on a first name basis! There’s no mask on my face partner, I don’t plan on robbing anyone. I came in, stsrted a business out of...

The shipping charges are calculated on my site from a price set by a feature integrated into the programming Homestead offers with the carrier I choose manually. I chose UPS because that’s what my supplier uses. They don’t allow for 5 different originating points, they ask for one zip code. I...

So I guess someone out there sees the true cost of doing business! Yet I get shat on for charging a measly $1.00 over my cost. I have no idea what my supplier pays for packing materials, I assume it’s built into my cost. And if you’re confused, I am NOT a wholesaler, I am a distributor. And to...

Guess you guys don’t read other posts, you just add to the last comment on each 1. I am out on worker’s comp. A marketing firm? I can’t afford to wipe my ***! 2. Didn’t “send” anyone to do anything, again, if you had the courage to start something on your own and you family tried helping you...

The layout? The site is not finished….there IS no layout?!? Do you buy something from a web site because it’s pretty or because you’re getting the same damn thing for a better price?

Both companies you mention have been in business longer than 2 weeks and both companies get their merchandise from the same supplier I do. If anyone out there is a business owner that can help me support my next claim, feel free to jump in. These are the prices I pay from my source for shipping...

If it is in fact my job and responsibility to apologize for my brother trying to help me I will take that responsibility and apologize. I had no idea he posted his comments on multiple forums, however he did tell me he posted comments about my site on here. I am quite aware of the impact of...
