TIMELINES

You may notice some of our titles have links to a shopping cart on our other web site that has a secure server.
This is  for your convenience. We process those orders ourselves and often lower the postage on multi-book and flip chart orders.
If you follow the link and get an error message that the title is no longer available, and the title is not a used or out of print book, it may mean we are currently out of stock or that we have temporarily put our listings on vacation because we can't ship for a few days. Even if a book is it's on it's way or has just arrived in the warehouse it won't show on the e-commerce site until I've had time to update and upload the changes.
You can always email me to see when the book is expected back in stock or nudge me to get it back in stock right away.

We're in the Pacific Time Zone
Our normal office hours when we answer the phone are 10: 30 AM - 4 PM Monday - Friday.
We answer email and ship at other times, but normally take Sundays off.
 

We prefer you ask your questions about products and availability by e-mail, since that gives us more time to prepare a thoughtful answer and keeps us from playing phone tag. Please remember to put our email address in your address book if you have a spam filter or you won't ever get your answer unless you also leave a phone number. We cannot usually tell you immediately over the phone if a book is here. We have to walk two blocks to check the warehouse, so I usually have to call you back or email you anyway.  We do check our e-mail frequently throughout the day when we are at home. If we should be out, and you leave a message on our answering machine, we sometimes cannot hear the phone number clearly to return your call. Those are some reasons why we recommend you email us first. If you want us to call you, please leave your phone number and time zone.
When you do email us, please do not leave the subject blank or just say "Hi" or "Hello" as the subject. We delete those before opening because a lot of spam messages look like that. 
We have supplied a subject line in the link provided above that will guarantee your mail will be opened fast.
Or call (800)925-8587 (not before 10 AM or after 10 PM Pacific Time)
