Illinois sales tax, briefly
Our estimates are shown before sales tax. The Illinois Department of Revenue lists 6.25% as the state rate for general merchandise; local taxes can make the rate at a given location higher, and local rates are subject to change twice a year, on January 1 and July 1 (Illinois Department of Revenue).
Central Time
Illinois is on Central Time, one hour ahead of us in Provo (49 CFR Part 71). Text in the morning in Chicago and it is still early here; soft quotes come back.
Delivery. Rings ship by FedEx or UPS with tracked delivery, free and fully insured; custom rings ship 4–5 weeks after you approve the 3D render, plus carrier transit time. Chicago, Evanston, Naperville, Aurora, Rockford, Peoria and Springfield addresses all get the same tracked, insured delivery. Because local Illinois rates can change on January 1 and July 1, the tax on a ring can depend on when and where it is delivered.
