Is the price presented to me a guaranteed price?

Edited

The upfront price you see while creating your notice is an estimated price. The proof that is generated also includes the estimated cost, but states the following: "This is not an invoice. Below is an estimated price, and it is subject to change. You will receive an invoice with the final price upon invoice creation by the publisher". We aim for it to be as accurate as possible, but this price is intended for informational purposes only — we hope you find it helpful! The publisher will confirm the final, accurate price that you will pay for your notice once they create an invoice in Column which you can expect to receive via email. 

Taxes
Note that taxes on the presented price may apply based on state laws, depending on the state the newspaper is located in. If certain newspapers have their own fees (outside Column), those fees may be taxable as well. There is no tax applied to Column-processed affidavits or notice fees.
