Tax
There is a sales tax for residents of California (note: the new sales tax rates listed below went into effect on April 1, 2009)

Shipping
Your order will be shipped when payment is received. Standard shipping inside the United States is included in the price of the book (usually delivered within 2 weeks of the ship date). There is an additional charge for orders shipped outside the United States. For an additional fee, your order can be shipped by priority mail (usually delivered 2-3 business days after the ship date) or by overnight shipping. If you do not specify the type of shipping, your order will be delivered by standard shipping.

Ordering Options:  Customers Inside the States or Its Territories
If you are inside the United States or its territories, you may order by either of the following methods:
    1) On-line using PayPal (see below) --- payment options include credit card and e-check. Paying by e-check may delay
        shipment by up to a week (because it takes this long for the e-check to clear). When ordering by Paypal, all
        shipping options are available. For credit card orders, you do not have to formally register with Paypal (the payment
        is simply processed using their services). 
    2) By mail --- payment by check only and standard shipping only (download order form and mailing instructions).

Ordering Options:  Customers Outside the United States
If you are outside the United States, you may order by either of the following methods:
    1) On-line using PayPal (see below) --- payment options include credit card and e-check. Paying by e-check may delay
        shipment by up to a week (because it takes this long for the e-check to clear). When ordering by Paypal, all
        shipping options are available. For credit card orders, you do not have to formally register with Paypal (the payment
        is simply processed using their services). 
   2) Money wire - There is an $12 US charge for money wires (that is what my bank charges me when I receive a money
        wire). Using Paypal is the less expensive option; however, if you cannot use PayPal, please send me an e-mail with
        the following information: 
           a) Specify that you wish to order by Money Wire.
           b) The size and quantity of books you wish to order.
           c) The shipping address.
           d) Type of shipping (regular or priority).

Ordering On-line
There is an additional $1.75 charge for ordering on-line.
When sending an on-line order to me, please provide me with an e-mail address that is hosted on a non-university server (university servers sometimes interfere with Paypal transactions). To place an order on-line using PayPal, please send an e-mail to Jeff Wieder, M.D. at pocketguidetourology@yahoo.com with the following information:
     1) Specify that you wish to order by PayPal (please do NOT send me your credit card number or account number).
     2) The size and quantity of books you wish to order.
     3) The shipping address (if shipping overnight, please also include your daytime phone number).
     4) Type of shipping (regular, priority, or overnight shipping).  Overnight shipping is not available for orders sent 
         outside the United States. If you elect to ship overnight, please send me your daytime phone number in addition to
         your shipping address.  Overnight orders will be shipped with "no signature required" unless you specify otherwise
         (this allows the postal worker to leave the package at your address when no one is present to sign for it).
I will send you an e-mail with the total cost of your order.  If you wish to place the order, you simply click the PayPal link in the e-mail and follow the instructions. I will be notified automatically as soon as you pay the invoice. When your invoice is paid, your order will be shipped.
