A whole lot of our checkered stuff is just a few simple clicks away. Simply choose one of our product pages and click on the button located with what you want to buy.

In some cases there is more to know about a particular item. Just click on the or on the. button IF displayed with an item and you will be taken to another page with more information. Here you will be able to use the button, if you want, to place an order.

As a convenience we provide a currency converter for our non-USA customers.

After each selection, you will be taken to our Shopping Cart page which will show you what you have ready to order (accumulated to that point) and give you an opportunity to change quantities, remove unwanted selections or start completely over. At this point you can continue shopping (use your browser's back button or choose an area from the red column on the left) or proceed to checkout.

Remember: You are not committed to any purchase (buy's you have made) until you go completely through the shopping cart checkout process and click on the button.

When you are done shopping go to the Shopping Cart Contents page. Choose You will be taken to a page where you will fill in information (name, address, etc.) which we need to compute shipping charges and applicable taxes (Illinois customers only). From here you should choose to go to our Order Summary page.

If you have been a recent customer you may end up at our Order Summary page directly from the Shopping Cart Contents page. This is because one of the cookies from a previous order remembers your name and address. From the Order Summary page you can edit any of the information by choosing the button or, if everything is to your liking proceed with your order by choosing the button.

On our next page you will make a payment choice and fill in any necessary billing information (if different from your shipping information). This is a secure page where all of the information is protected. We are serious about security. Read more about this on our Fine Print page. Be especially assured: your credit card information is ALWAYS secure and never retained.

When all of this has been completed click the button and your order will then, and only then, be sent to us.

If at any time you are confused, click the button. It will take you to a page explaining the process and what each button means and does.

As confirmation you will be notified by e-mail that you have placed an order with us. This e-mail confirmation will give you a web address where we will store a copy of your invoice which you can refer to if you like.

If you have chosen to call, fax or mail in your order you will need to do just that. We will have a copy of the items you have ordered but will wait to ship your order until we have heard from you.


It is our intention to ship your order within 48 hours and we make every effort to do so. We ship UPS or USPS unless otherwise requested but warn that that can add to the shipping time. We charge for shipping according to the sale total.
