III. How to Order
Tell me which books you want. Add up the prices. I
ship via UPS Ground, so add $4 for the first book, and $1
for each additional book. Add the total price for books to
the shipping charge and write me a check for the correct
amount (a money order is also acceptable). Send your order
along with your street address (that is what UPS wants!) to:
Frank Wallis
PO Box 654
Monroe, CT 06468
Shipping Options:
(1) If you want faster shipping I can do FedEx, Express
Mail, or UPS Next Day, but you must add another $20.
(2) If you want the cheapest shipping, I'll send it USPS
Book Rate for a mere $2 for the first book, $1 for each
additional book. Yet, USPS Book Rate is SLOW (two weeks at
least).
GUARANTEE: Unlike some professional mail order companies
which refuse (unlawfully by-the-way) to accept returns, I
will give you your money back (but not shipping charges) if
you are not satisfied with your purchase. Returned books
must be shipped in sturdy boxes, packed tightly, and be in
the same condition in which I shipped them. I will reject
any books shipped in envelopes or jiffy bags.
