I do not recommend this site. I placed an order and paid with a credit card, I received an email right away that said if I use Paypal instead my order would go out right away, if I decide to pay with my credit card, I would have to wait for them to send a request to my credit card company. Well, two weeks went by and I emailed them. They said my credit card was fine and approved and that I would be receiving a tracking number when it shipped. A month goes by so I call and they said the order was never sent because my billing and shipping addresses were different. No email explanation was ever sent. I will take my money elsewhere!
