How to Purchase <*> Pins:

Jump to snail-mail ordering

Jump to Paypal button

 

NOTE FROM ELANA:
All new purchases of Pins are suspended
until September 10, 2010.  This is actually GOOD news. :)  Contact me after then.


Before we begin:
Apologies for the lack a real, live shopping-cart purchase page for my Pin site. Long story short, my various attempts over the years to get an automatic shopping cart set up never worked out.  

Since there are less than 120 Pins left to sell anyway, it's pretty much a moot point to install fancy server coding for something that will probably not last past a few more months.

I am now adding a snail-mail ordering option. Due to some advice and stories about Paypal that I have been hearing lately, I've decided that my new goal is to have at least 50% of my orders be sold via check or money order. (See my blog post for more details).

If you like the idea of FREE SHIPPING via Priority Mail in the USA (or reduced price internationally) - plus an additional 5% discount on any order above 75 dollars. See "Method 1" below for the check or money order option. :)

If you prefer the fast convenience of paying online for your Pins, it's full price plus the shipping charge. See "Method 2" below.  

(Paypal is highly recommended if you are buying the very last of any kind of Pin, just to be sure to expedite your order.)


SPECIAL OFFER: If you buy 3 or more of any kind of Pin,
you can get a FREE tie tack!  
No kidding!  

Grab this deal while you can.  :)


Method 1 - Pay by Check or Money Order:
Get FREE (or half-price outside USA) Priority Mail shipping. Add a 5% discount for orders above 75 dollars!

1. Take a look at pics of the various Pins on both the "Rarities" page and the "First Pins" page, if you have not done so already.   

2. Take a look at the complete list of Jumpgate Pin prices here.
 
3. Many of the Pins are running out fast, so contact me first to confirm:

A: What Pin(s) you want to order.
If a particular Pin is marked "ask to reserve," that means there's less than 5 of that type left. Ask me to reserve that Pin for you.

(NOTE: if the Pin you want is the very last one of that type. I highly recommend switching to paying via Paypal to best expedite the order. Yeah I know I said that already, but it still bears repeating.)

B:
What type of shipping method you desire.

4. Wait for your email reply from me (Elana) confirming your order, letting you know your total price with all the discounts. I'll also let you know how to properly spell my last name :)

5. Send your order to this address:

Method 2 - Pay via PayPal:
How to get the fast convenience of online ordering:

1. Take a look at pics of the various Pins on both the "Rarities" page and the "First Pins" page, if you have not done so already.   

2. Take a look at the complete list of Jumpgate Pin prices here.
 
3. Choose your shipping method.

Note: If a particular Pin is marked "ask to reserve," there's less than 5 of that type left. Ask me to reserve that Pin for you.

3. Click the Paypal button below and enter the total amount on the upcoming page where it will say "Unit Price".  

(Ignore the confusing "Enter ship-to ZIP Code" text you'll also see there.)  

Then click "update totals".
You can then proceed to fill out the credit card info.  

If you already have Paypal, log in as usual. 
 


Thanks for your order! :)
