Your receipt of an electronic or other form of order confirmation neither signifies COS’s acceptance of Your order, nor constitutes confirmation of COS’s offer to sell. COS reserves the right at any time after receipt of Your order to accept or decline Your order for any reason. COS may charge and withhold the applicable sales tax for orders, otherwise.
