I apologize for this temporary inconvenience

Special Policies for countries not listed above

Before placing an order, if you are not in the United States, The UK, or Canada, Please email for Credit Card country verification first.

There are many countries that we do not accept credit card orders from due to high incidences of credit card fraud and buyer fraud. In some of these countries there may also be delivery problems.  While this may not be you, we have no way of knowing who is an honest customer and who is not. Due to credit card company policies in these situations we are left holding the "bag" so to speak even when the customer is the cheat. We have no recourse to recover in many cases. There are also delivery problems in some countries and this can cause a problem where the customer is honest and we make every effort to deliver.

In these countries where we cannot accept credit card orders, we will accept PayPal orders. If there is no PayPal listed for your country, we will only accept prepaid orders from those unlisted countries. Honest customers understand this and why we must approach it this way. You can establish a solid business relationship this way and we will get you taken care of. After a number of successful orders we will then consider credit card purchases from you.

The Following Applies to All Orders
We will not "Fudge" or knowingly falsify invoices. For the couple of dollars made on most purchases, it is not worth it to us, besides being against the law. I suggest you vote for and elect representatives who  will support fairer trade policies. This is the way it has to be.
