Methods of Payment

I accept checks, money orders, Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and PayPal. Use the shopping cart to order, and it will prompt you for payment information when you check out.

Using the Shopping Cart

Please use my shopping cart to place your order. In case you haven't used one, this is how you do it:

1. When you find a card you would like to purchase, select "Add to Order."
2. Repeat step #1 to add more cards to your order.
3. When you are finished adding cards to your order, select "View Shopping Cart" to bring up the shopping cart page.
4. Enter your name, mailing address, email address, and method of payment, and select "Check Out."
• If you select Secure Credit Card as your method of payment, "Check Out" will take you to a secure page (provided by VeriSign) where you can enter your Visa, Mastercard, or Discover Card information.
• If you select PayPal as your method of payment, "Check Out" will take you to a PayPal page with all of the order information filled in. You can then enter your PayPal information to pay me.
• If you select Check or Money Order, "Check Out" will take you to an invoice page that you can print and mail to me with your payment. If you pay with a check or money order, I will reserve the cards when I get your notice, and I will mail them to you shortly after receiving your payment.

Shipping Charges

I charge the following for shipping via the US Mail. Insurance is included for orders sent to addresses in the U.S. and Canada. (I insure parcels through a company called U-PIC. See Insurance, below.) I will also ship to other countries, but insurance for mailing to other countries is expensive, so by default I do not include it. If you live outside the U.S. and Canada, and if you would like your order insured, please email me.

If you live in Colorado, you must also add 7.72% sales tax.

I will mail your cards promptly, usually within a day of receiving your payment. I guarantee all cards, even professionally graded ones. If, for any reason, you are not happy with your purchase, I will buy the cards back from you, no questions asked.

Insurance

I insure parcels through a company called U-PIC. (If you are curious, see their website.) By insuring through U-PIC, I can:

• Keep your shipping costs lower (by about a dollar an order),
• Charge the same amount for insured shipping to Canada,
• Keep me from standing in the post office line every day, and
• Simplify the claims process, should we need it. (Filing a post office claim is very painful.)

In short, don't be alarmed if your package shows up with just stamps on it. It was insured, just not by the post office. (If it is a more expensive order, I will still purchase delivery confirmation from the post office, and you will still have to sign for your package.)

If you have any questions, please email me.

Grading

I follow PSA's grading standards. If I grade a card NM or NM/MT, I intend for you to be able to send it to PSA and get that grade. I have a nice sunny office, and when I grade a card, I hold it up to the sunlight and say What Would PSA Do? Then I write that grade on a yellow sticky and stick it on the card holder.

If I err, it's usually on the side of caution, and I'll undergrade a card before I overgrade it. This is supposed to be fun, and I want my customers to be tickled, not disappointed. I also want you to come back and buy more cards!
