Scentsy Consumer Tip: Taxes, Shipping & Handling

"Taxes, Shipping & Handling"

If you could imagine, I am presented with about every question you could expect about Scentsy. Most concern facts about the product, how they work, how long it takes to receive an order and safety issues.

One question does stand out above all, and I'd like to take the time now to give everyone as much information as possible about this question:

"How much will the Taxes be, and what about Shipping and Handling?"

TAXES:

First, let me address the taxes on your order. Scentsy by law charges taxes based on the state you reside in. This is called "Use Tax". Some companies charge a tax from their own state that they are headquartered in. In order to keep you out of Dutch with your states Dept of Revenue, Scentsy calculates the taxes on Scentsy products as if you purchased them in your own state and then pays that state the taxes due on your behalf. 

"Purchases made over the Internet and out-of-state are the most common type of transactions subject to a use tax." (Georgia Department of Revenue, 2014. Retrieved from:  https://etax.dor.ga.gov/salestax/st_ConsumerUseTax.aspx).

SHIPPING & HANDLING:

Shipping is another big question I encounter frequently. Based on size and weight of your products, Scentsy actually charges less on Shipping and Handling because of the volume of business they conduct and pass that savings on to you!! 

Below is the actual shipping charges applied to a range of dollar amounts spent versus the cost of shipping that amount in the terms below. These shipping and handling charges are to assure you receive your products in a timely, undamaged manner and can also be found on the Scentsy's Car and Freshness website upon checkout:

Orders of $0-$79.99 (USD) that ship within the 48 contiguous United States pay a flat $8.00 shipping fee 

Orders of $80-$149.99 (USD) that ship within the 48 contiguous United States pay a 10% shipping fee (i.e. $90 order pays a $9 shipping fee)

 Orders of $150 (USD) or more that ship within the 48 contiguous United States ship for FREE Orders of $0-$49.99 (USD) that ship outside the 48 contiguous United States pay a flat $10.00 shipping fee 

Orders of $50-$149.99 (USD) that ship outside the 48 contiguous United States pay a 20% shipping fee (i.e. $70 order pays $14 shipping) 

Orders of $150 (USD) or more that ship outside the 48 contiguous United States pay a 10% shipping fee (i.e. $170 order pays $17 shipping)
