BUYERS PLEASE NOTE: UPS NO LONGER accepts CASH for COD deliveries! PREPAY your order by credit card or be prepared with CERTIFIED FUNDS when receiving orders COD. Larger orders save TIME and MONEY!
REMEMBER: Refused or unreceived shipments cost the supplier who pays the shipping charges and passes those fees on to vendors in the form of higher prices or freight fees and stricter rules of prepayment. Everyone suffers when shipments are not received as ordered.

AVISO PARA COMPRADORES: ¡UPS YA NO acepta EFECTIVO para pagos contra entrega! PAGUE su pedido con ANTICIPACIÓN con su tarjeta de crédito o tenga listos FONDOS CERTIFICADOS cuando reciba pedidos de pago contra entrega. ¡Los pedidos más grandes ahorran TIEMPO y DINERO!
RECUERDE: Los envíos rechazados o que no son recibidos representan un gasto para el proveedor que paga los gastos de envío y luego los transfiere a los proveedores bajo la forma de mayores precios o gastos de envío y reglas más estrictas para los pagos contra entrega. Todos pierden cuando los envíos no son recibidos en la forma pedida.
