Jessica, To my knowledge, institutions are all tax exempt.
On the advice of our accountants, Music Hunter has never collected sales tax from any institutions.

Also the regularly have 25% off sales. I would just eat the tax, but if you want I will check with a friend of mine there.

I have been trying to order a DVD from them for months, but the order form does not allow me to tell them I am tax exempt. I sent them an e-mail to ask them how I could order from them and include a tax exempt number. They responded saying they needed more information which I gave them. When I did not hear back, I e-mailed them again and they did not answer this e-mail. Now, I have a request for a second title which is in their archive. I see that Amazon is selling the WB archive titles through their site, but they charge more for them. I will be greatly appreciated any help with this problem.
