Frequently Asked Questions

How can I order online?
You can place an order through our online website by adding your selected products to the shopping cart and following the checkout process. You can pay by any major credit card or through your PayPal account.

What if I can't find the product I am looking for?
Many of our items are not yet listed for sale on the website. Check back frequently as we continue to add products from our store. Please call during regular store hours with questions concerning products that we carry but are not yet shown online.

Can I place an order by phone or fax?
Absolutely! You can also place orders over the phone, by fax, or by email if you would like to purchase items not yet listed on the website.

Can I pay with cash or check?
We do not accept cash or checks for online purchases. To pay with a personal or business check or with cash, please visit the store during our regular operating hours.

No, we do not allow C.O.D. for internet orders. However, we will accept C.O.D. on phone orders with a previous purchase history.

I have a Resale License, how do I use it?
If you have a valid resellers permit number, you are exempt from paying sales tax. We need to have a copy of the permit number on file. So please fax us a copy before you make a purchase online. Once we have your number on file, you can register online and your account will be marked as a Wholesaler and you will not have tax added to your orders. Wholesale pricing is available by ordering bulk quantities. Call the store for details.
