To place an order on this web site is a simple manner of browsing the products until you find what you are looking for. If a product can be purchased, an `Add to Cart` or `Purchase Button` will appear next to the product. By clicking this button you can add as many items as you like into your cart before clicking on a `Checkout` link or button to finalise your purchase.
You have several options on how you can pay for your purchase. They include...
Credit Card:
We accept only Visa Card and Master Card. We accept these details via our SECURE order page.
Direct Deposit:
Where we offer direct deposit as a payment option we will email you our direct deposit details on confirmation of your purchase. We will then await confirmation that your payment has been made before shipping your order.
