Is using my credit card to order safe?
Yes, we utilize secure data encryption. We encrypt the information when you enter your credit card info and transfer it to our cart database.

When we retrieve your credit card number, the information is decrypted. The card numbers are stripped out of any e-mail messages that are sent to you or us, which can only be retrieved by us through an encrypted browser session.
If the order form is secure, why doesn't' the "pad lock" show up on my browser?
The reason you don't see the pad lock icon is because the site uses "frames" to display the content. Secure sites are intentionally set up this way. Each frame must be "secure" for the padlock to show up. However, be assured, the order form frame is secure and is submitted to a secure URL. When you select your method of payment you are directed (in the frame) to this URL: https://www.cartserver.com/sc/checkout.cgi. Notice that it has a "s" after http. This denotes the security certificate that is passed from the server to the browser, and if this page were displayed without frames, a pad lock would appear in the browser window. You can try this yourself by "right" clicking on one of the payment methods and selecting "open in new browser" (or "new window"). Once the checkout screen is displayed, you will see the "pad lock" appear in your browser.
I am still not comfortable with online shopping, can I fax or mail an order?
Sure, just shop normally, adding items to your shopping cart. When you have made all of your choices, simply proceed to checkout where you will be given the choice of printing your order for faxing or mail. Using this method insures that we get all the information we need to process your order quickly and accurately.

We accept VISA, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.
Can I pay for my International order by check?
