- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
CD Shareware's new "Virtual Check" service is now up and running!  This
is perfect for those of you who don't have credit cards, (or don't want
to use them) but still want the convenience of being able to place your
CD-ROM orders AND have them shipped the same day. Thousands of mail and
phone-order companies across the U.S. and Canada are now  offering this
new payment method, for those customers where plastic isn't an option!
All we need to process your order,is the same exact information that we
would get off your  check if you had mailed it in.  The beauty is  that
instead of  waiting anywhere from  2 days  to a week for  your check to
arrive  here, we simply  get your account information over the phone or
by fax, and then produce a paper draft. This "check" is treated just as
if you had mailed it to us.  It will be deposited, and returned to your
bank  for  payment, just as any other check  in your checkbook. Best of
all, your order ships the SAME DAY!
To take advantage of this  new service, just have your checkbook handy,
and call us at 1-888-CDS-WARE. You  can also FAX  your check  to us  at
509-545-5377, or enter  your order online, via our BBS at 509-545-9879,
or  WWW: http://www.webbcats.com/cdshare. The BBS  order  door  is now
upgraded to take online checks, and the web page is too!
Besides  your  checking  account info, we also require the issuing bank
name  and telephone number for validation purposes.  The phone # may or
may not be on your check, so please have it available prior to ordering.
At CD Shareware, we're always looking for ways to serve  you better, so
give our new service a try,  and tell us what you think! We take checks
from anywhere in North America, yes Canadian customers too!!
