Q - Do I have to order by credit card?
A - No. Even though we accept Visa, Master Card, and American Express, we will also accept a personal or business check, check verification over the internet or a money order.

Q - Is it safe to order over the Internet using my credit card or checking account?
A - We have taken every precaution to insure your security. First, we use a third party encryption service, Redi-Check, to process credit cards and checks over the Internet. We selected Redi-Check because they use only the latest secure software including address verification. This means that the Bill to address and the address your credit card company or bank has on file for you MUST MATCHor the order cannot be filled. In addition to the billing address we provide a place to enter your shipping address if you want it shipped to a diffrent location. If your order is declined, make sure you have entered in the correct billing address if not this is probably the reason. This protects you and us from anyone being able to use your stolen credit card. Also, Redi-Check sends only an approval number to us, not your account numbers.

Q - When will my order be shipped?
A - We keep an inventory of our most popular products. If your order is in stock and you have paid by money order or credit card over the Internet, your order will be shipped within 2 business days. Please allow 7 working days for personal, business checks or check over the internet. If a product is not in stock, we will order it the same day and usually receive it from our distributors within 5 business days of our order.

A - JSM Books will charge your account at the time of your order.

Q - I have heard a lot about Mail Order and Internet fraud. What can I do to prevent it from happening to me?
A - Purchasing Mail Order and across the Internet have developed a lot of well deserved ill will and distrust. There are many people out there with one thing in mind when doing business with you. They want to separate you from your money for nothing in return. This is nothing but fraud. As the old saying goes: "If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is." We have put together the following suggestions, hopefully to help you from becoming a victim of fraud. We firmly believe that companies that follow these guidelines, and there are many, are the ones you can trust to do business with.

  • Always get a total cost of any product you purchase. Be sure this includes any taxes and shipping. It does not matter if you order via the Internet, telephone or by mail. Keep records of the items you purchased including:
    1) The purchase date.
    2) The purchase amount.
    3) How you ordered and from whom if this was a telephone order.
    4) How much you paid for the item.

  • Find out what the companys return policy is. Will they allow you to return defective products? Who is responsible for return shipping costs? Is there a restocking charge, and under what circumstances?

  • Do they offer a telephone number to their business, or are you talking to a telemarketing service? Get the name, position and telephone number (if they contacted you) of the person you placed your order with. By them freely giving this information, they are less likely to be running a "Scam Business".

  • NEVER SEND CASH THROUGH THE MAIL. Always use a check, money order or credit card. If they do not accept credit cards, question the actual existence of the mail order / Internet order company.

  • If you have reason to believe you have been involved in a case of fraud, the following should help.
    If after 30 days of ordering, you have not received your merchandise or have not been notified by the company of why there is such a delay, do the following:
    1) Contact the company by phone and talk to the person you made the order with, or their supervisor.
    2) If nothing is resolved, send a copy of your cancelled check or credit card receipt along with a list of products order and their costs.
    3) If after 2 weeks, your complaint has still not been resolved, you can contact any of the following:
  • If you ordered by mail, contact your local post master.
  • Contact you District Attorney.
  • Contact you State Attorney General.
  • Contact the Consumer Protection Agency.
  • Contact your local television or radio consumer advocate.
  • Most important, contact your credit card company.

  • There have been a number of instances where by giving your credit card information over the telephone or e-mail, you are giving it to someone in prison. This is the reason we require your ship to address to match the address your credit card company has on file for you.

  • We welcome your e-mail sexinfo@jsmbooks.com questions and suggestions.
