Payment Methods Credit Cards American Express, Visa, Mastercard, and Discover are accepted. In order to process credit card orders, we must also verify the card's billing address and issuing bank. We reserve the right to refuse credit cards for international orders if our clearing bank cannot verify this information. Checks Personal checks are accepted for payment for Internet and Mail orders. We will not ship items until checks clear.
Customers are responsible for all fees related to returned checks.
Shipping prices are in fact determined primarily by weight. We have chosen this, as opposed to an arbitrary per-disc price, because in most circumstances it saves our customers money. The specialized packaging of some operas and boxed sets may contribute extra which may require them to be shipped at a higher freight tier. Accordingly, your actual shipping charge may be slightly less or slightly more than the shopping cart estimates. We apologize for this occasional discrepancy.
