Payment options

Hi GG,
just wanted to ask what payment options GG offers for customers...
I couldn't find ANY info on the site concerning the payment, so if it is somewhere, you should include it in the About shopping page...
If it *still* is only Credit Card, you should really think about other options (e.g. PayPal etc.), cause e.g. in Germany (or Europe in general, not to mention a dozen of other countries) Credit Cards aren't *that* widespread... or ppl just are too young to have one ... imagine a 12 year old kid wanting to buy Think Tanks, but it's parents dont want to buy it via CC... (and the kid doesnt have one obviously.. ;))

I know of some ppl/friends of mine over here who *would* buy e.g. ThinkTanks, *if* they had a chance to pay for it (besides CC)... they just don't happen to have a Credit Card and dont want to get one ....
Just my 2c thou... ;)
But maybe there *are* other options and I just couldnt find the info... :)

would it be possible to get a money order in US funds? and toss it in the snail mail to GG? yeah, it could take a few days to get to the US, but it might be a viable option.

Well, something other than credit cards would be nice, but definately not paypal.

Good call. We'll add the payment options into the About Shopping page. BTW, we do accept personal checks and money orders via snail mail. The info is kind of buried, but the actual process is very nicely tied into the check out process.

We could be a lot better in being more obvious about a lot of things on out site.
