Personal checks: For new customers, orders will be sent when the check clears the bank. That is usually three days, in the case of some checks up to 21 days. For established customers (if your checks have not bounced with us in the past) we will ship as fast as we can. We try to remember good customers.

Money orders: Orders with money orders are shipped as fast as we can prepare the order.

Western Union: We do accept Western Union money transfers. This can be useful for overseas customers.

Money Grams: We do accept MoneyGrams. You can use them to speed up ordering You can find them on the web at: http://www.moneygram.com/index.htm. Or call them at 1-888-910-3210 (US and Canada).

Credit Cards: We do not take credit card orders, but people have special ordered our books through their local book store or occasionally a major book chains like Barnes & Noble (local stores only, their online store doesn't carry them) and Borders.

Paypal: We do not accept Paypal. They simply have too much of a mixed record on paying the money they owe to businesses.

Note: Prices are subject to change without notice. No COD’s or open accounts. Predeposit accounts possible (you send us the money, then order later, it will speed delivery).


Shipping & Handling:

Shipping charges include the cost of packaging, handling, shipping and insuring your order. The shipping costs below are the total shipping charge for an entire order. If you order 1 item or 100 items in the same order, shipping is the same as if you order only 1 item. It is our built in discount. All orders are shipped by U.S.Mail or UPS. UPS cannot deliver to a post office box, or mail drop.

Discounts: Our shipping charge is our built in discount. It you order 1 item or 100 items in the same order you only have to pay as if you ordered 1 item. We do this because we sell items ranging from $.50 to $242. So it is not really possible, if we want to sell anything, for us to charge $6 per item for shipping. So you save on shipping when you order large number of items at one time.

UPS 2nd Day and other Express Services: Please don’t request it. We produce our books on demand, which means that we don’t have stock on hand and have to print it when an order arrives. Especially large orders take extra time for us to prepare the order. So it is not possible to speed up our service by using a speedy delivery service. But this does allow us to have a huge selection available for our customers.

Overseas Air Mail: Currently, we can only ship overseas by air mail because the US postal service does no longer has surface mail (even to Canada). Over the years we have had a lot of trouble shipping packages overseas by air mail. So we if we have problems again we may go back to shipping only by surface mail. Each country has it’s own particular custom’s procedures which may cause a shipment to be delayed or even lost. If you do not receive your order, inform us and we will do our best to replace it, but that will take time.


Restrictions

Note that U.S.export regulations vary from country to country so we have to review each overseas sale to determine that we can even send it. See our Foreign Sales webpage for details.
