CHECKOUT TUTORIAL FOR CREDIT CARDS OR PAYPAL


PayPal verified secure Google Wallet


Request an Invoice
You may choose to use the Contact form contained in the Google Invoice Button to request an invoice rather than use the standard checkout system.
Please allow up to 24 hours for the invoice to be sent, as well please note whether Standard Shipping or expedited shipping (1 or 2 day Air) is preferred.
Both Google & PayPal Invoices can be paid via Major Credit Cards or via Respective Google or PayPal accounts
There is a 1% surcharge for Google Invoices due to higher fees

Other than the Google Invoice there is no extra charge for PayPal Electronic Invoice Requests.

*For those who liked our Google Checkout Carts on many pages, our apologies as we discontinued these due to the many complaints of having multiple carts being confusing as well as higher costs to us.
We still offer custom Google Checkout invoices for those who prefer Google to PayPal, Credit Cards, or Money Orders.

Other than International Google Invoices there is no extra charge for Electronic Invoice Requests.

  • We recommend a PayPal account for ease of purchases in the future from us or the many online businesses that accept PayPal (which is the largest online service of this type) as you do not have to re-enter credit card or shipping information with each order.

    However if you do Not want to have a PayPal account OR do not wish to use a your PayPal account, it is not necessary to have OR use a PayPal account to purchase from us using a credit card.
    See the Purchasing with a Credit Card Screen Shot further down this page.

    IMPORTANT: Since We use PayPal hosted shopping carts for added security, IF you have a PayPal account you MUST use your PayPal account that is attached to the credit card on file with PayPal, otherwise your transaction will be automatically rejected
    Please Read Step #4 for more

  • You can Review your Shopping Cart from any Shopping Page (or click this link to the left), however our PayPal template does not allow to check shopping carts on our many informational pages.

  • You can Add 2 Day Air or Expedited Shipping at the end of checkout (see Step 6 in the pictorial below)

  • Please note that the number “1” at the beginning of a phone number will cause a failure of this digital checkout system, so please use only the area code plus your local phone number.

  • We do not have access to your credit card information (it is encrypted on a secure server to which we do not have access for your security); therefore we cannot add to your order, only refund. As well, unless you set up a PayPal account whereby you make your credit card as the default payment, your credit card information is not stored anywhere & must be re-entered with a new transaction.

  • The "Jump to Shopping Cart" buttons are just that; these are a quick way to move about our web pages as many of our web pages have so much information (unlike most web sites that provide little accurate information), that these buttons provide for quick/easy access to the actual Shopping Cart which then will have a Standard PayPal Drop Down Menu to easily add the items you would like to purchase and also change quantities once added.

Please see these screen shots (below) for some tutorials if you are having any difficultly.

PayPal Shopping Cart Screen Shot Drop Down Menu Screen Shot *Step 1; Drop Down Menu The Drop Down Menu is found on most pages selling items, this is a common "PayPal" menu. Simply click on the "down" arrow (#1 on the picture) to display the full menu, then bring your curser over the item desired to select the item (#2 on the picture depending upon item). After this click on "Pay Now" to add this to the cart. From the cart you can change the number of each item from 1 to whatever is desired; you can then click on continue shopping to add more items to the cart from the page you are currently on or go to another page.

*Step 2; Please use the Pay Now Cart for multiple purchases
To purchase using a Credit Card

Please click on the picture to the left for a screen shot of how to change or add multiples of an item once you have selected from a drop down menu. You can change the number of items on the page shown from 1 to any number required (or delete as well).
Sometimes at this point PayPal can have cookie issues, especially if you shop multiple shops that use PayPal. If this happens we have found clearing your browser cache (entire cache history), then closing your browser and re-opening it will solve the problem.
Alternately, simply using another browser such as switching from IE to Firefox (or vice versa) will solve this cache problem


You can also calculate Standard Shipping (Expedited or 2 Day Shipping can be calculated later or you can see our Shipping Rates Chart which includes selected International locations)

PayPal Screen Shot


*Step 3; Credit Card (or another opportunity to login to your PayPal account)







Credit Card Checkout Screen Shot
*Step 4 Choose purchase using a Credit Card when you do not desire a PayPal account, please see the screen shot to the left.
After this proceed by clicking on either "Log in and pay with my PayPal Account" OR "Continue to pay as Guest and do not use PayPal Account" (Credit Card or Credit Card not attached to PayPal account).

HOWEVER if you have or had a PayPal Account and use a Credit Card or email Address "tied" to this account, for security the system WILL require the use of this PayPal Account or otherwise your transaction (credit Card) will be denied. If you do not know/remember your PayPal Password, we suggest using a different credit card and/or email address for checkout.

Please note since we use PayPal as an off site checkout for the highest security, Paypal forces the security check of matching your PayPal account to your credit card.
This is not the same as a checkout that just accepts PayPal as another payment method and is something that is privately hosted on the selling website (not Paypal). This is not a problem/issue with this website!!


Credit Card Checkout Screen Shot





*Step 5; Fill In Credit Card Information

Make to sure to click on "Review and Continue" at the bottom right.

If you are paying with a credit card do NOT click on the "Pay with my PayPal Account at the top unless you have decided to use or open a PayPal account









Address, Change Shipping Method Screen Shot
*Step 6; Make sure your Billing Address Matches your Credit Card;
If you have an incorrect billing address or ship to a different address, please make sure that the billing address matches the one on file with your credit card (you can then ship to a different address), otherwise credit card processor security measure will likely reject your purchase.


*At this time you can also use the Drop Down menu to use an Expedited Shipping Method.
