Simple
Steps To Place An Order
-
To
purchase an item, click on the "add to cart" link next to that item. Your payment will
be processed by the PayPal encrypted shopping cart system. I
will ship your purchase within five (5) business days after receipt of payment. If you have a special request
please email me to make arrangements. I check my email daily unless work takes me out of town.
- Payment methods accepted are; PayPal, money order or personal
check Please allow ten (10) days for checks/M.O.'s to clear.
Within 48 hours, you will be sent
a confirmation email. This email will contain the final purchase price including
any discounts ( members of FMS get a 10% discount) taxes (if applicable), and shipping. Orders valued at $100.00 or more will
be shipped via USPS priority mail with a delivery guarantee in the United States. Guarantee is only valid if you have provided me with the correct shipping address. Unless
indicated, your shipping address will be the same as what you have listed with PayPal (if that is the method of payment).
No refunds or specimen replacements will be given if you have not provided me with the correct shipping
address OR if your shipment is lost in the mail.
SPECIAL NOTE:
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY PAY SALES TAX (8.75% of total
purchase price). If you live outside of California, there is NO SALES TAX.

A full refund of the cost of any mineral
is happily given if the mineral is returned undamaged within 14 days of purchase. Shipping charges are non refundable. Customer pays return shipping cost's. Mineral(s)
may be returned if you feel they have not been accurately described or depicted. Contact
me immediately by e-mail upon receipt of your order. Orders that are lost and or damaged in
the mail are not our responsibility. We ship in good faith and carefully package all item's but can not be held liable
for any failure in handling by the US Postal System or any other postal carrier. Therefore, we strongly recommend
postal insurance on all orders.
Minerals
are photographed as accurately as possible. However, I am not a professional photographer.
I use a 50 watt UVP SW lamp for shortwave photography and for Longwave I use a 36 watt and a 9 watt WTC LW-UV lamps. If you are interested in a specimen/item or you have a
special request, e-mail the specimen code number or the name of what you are looking for and you will
be sent a high resolution digital photograph of what is in stock. I have thousands of minerals in stock, far to numerous to
photograph and post on the web.
I am frequently out of town collecting and unable to process orders till I return. I will post
notices on this site when that happens. If you choose to order and wait, you will receive a bonus specimen.
Your total satisfaction is the number one goal
at Mineralman!
