DO YOU HAVE ANOTHER
CATALOG?
We don't have any other catalog. If paper and ink somehow
became cheaper than space on the Web, we might consider having a hard copy catalog.
Until that time, we only have our web store (which is fairly complete as far as
what we have in our shop). If there is something you are looking for, and we don't
have it, just ask us.

HOW DO YOU WORK THE SHIPPING?
Shipping Charges are figured out accurately. Handling charges (usually only $0.25 - $1.00) cover the cost of packaging materials.
Here's a little chart breaking down the average shipping charges for a 4 LB. Box shipped via UPS to a non-rural address in Florida, and Priority Mail. Please note this is not 100% accurate for your box, this is only a reference.
However, you can see that if you want EXPRESS SHIPMENT, and you are getting a large waterpipe, it does cost a lot more than ground. Please remember these rates are determined by UPS, not by us.
Actual rates will vary according to the actual weight of your package, and the dimensions of the box required for your shipment.

I DON'T HAVE A CREDIT CARD
If you don't have a credit card, we do offer
options to Mail us a Money Order. If you want to choose this option, just select
the card type "Mail Money", then write "MAIL MONEY" in the box for the Credit
Card Number.
Once you have placed your order we will e-mail you back with instructions on where
to send your Money Order, and how much the total will be including shipping and
handling. Money Order shipments will not be sent until we receive the money order.
We do not accept personal checks (sorry).
COD's are no longer accepted as a form of payment for retail orders. This
feature was abused by more people than actually accepted the COD deliveries. We
are sorry if this is an inconvenience.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN EXTRA HANDLING CHARGE?
If your package is going to be more than 3
feet long, there may be additional handling charges from UPS. This will also include
an additional cost for the shipping of the items. If you've ordered over $100
worth of merchandise from the store, your shipping will be discounted. The discount
will be equal to the shipping charges for a non oversized package.
FOR EXAMPLE: You live in NY, and your box weighs 5 pounds,
but it is 3 feet long. UPS bills this 3 foot long box as 30 LBS. The cost to ship
this 3 foot long box is $15.72. The shipping for a regular 5 LB box to NY is $5.63.
If your order exceeded $100, you would pay $10 for additional handling.
