Woodpeckers dealer w/ free shipping and no tax

[jarbroen]

Can anybody recommend a good Woodpecker dealer that offers free shipping and no tax to WA?
I'd order some of the newer tools directly from Woodpeck, but $239 for a square plus $17 for shipping plus over $20 for tax...makes me not want to buy it.
I tried calling and emailing US Tool and Fastener to ask if they carry the newer items... can't get a response.
Toolnut charges tax.  My local Woodcraft(not really that local) doesn't have much of a selection.

Anyway, thanks in advance, fellow cheapskates.

Maybe Anderson Plywood in Cal.

I’ve used Carbide Processors over the years - may want to check there.

I've heard good things about Carbide Processors.  They are in WA state so tax, but sounds like they might offer discounts.
For the life of me, I can't figure out how to add things to my cart on their outdated, non-secure site... There's no 'add to cart'.  Weird.

Anderson Plywood doesn't have an online store, that I'm aware of.  I don't mind calling and ordering stuff from a good vendor, but prefer shopping online.

I know, so picky.  I think that's the problem that comes with so many choices in life.

You may have some difficulty with the no tax part. Washington state requires sellers that do $100,000 or more in sales to Washington residents to register with the state and collect and file state sales tax. That’s even if they don’t have a nexus in Washington.

Yeah, the no tax is harder and harder to find.  There should still be smaller(under $100k)/non nexus companies though.  I recently ordered 3 different tool orders from 3 different places that didn't charge tax or shipping.

Even if carbide processors charges tax, they used to offer coupons for $10-15 off a $150+ purchase, so that may offset the tax completely or partially.  I stopped getting their emails, so I don't know if they still run those promotions regularly.  Maybe someone that is currently on their mailing list can confirm?

I emailed Carbide Processors about tool availability... they are no longer carrying Woodpecker due to supply/backorder issues.
I also noticed that a lot of dealers that Woodpecker listed don't carry their product any longer.
Not a good sign...
