We provide direct secure credit card checkout as well as checkout through Paypal and Google Checkout. Credit card payments clear immediately and allow us to ship your package immediately upon receipt of your payment. Please note that if you are paying via Paypal with an echeck payment (an electronic debit from your checking account), it takes 4-6 business days for payment to clear for orders in the US. Paypal does not release the funds to us until after your payment has cleared. Your package will not be shipped until we receive the cleared payment from Paypal.
