Help for Price Quote and Secure Order Entry
We base our price quoting upon four (4) simple questions:
-
What is the name of the book?
-
What is the pattern number or page number?
-
How many do you want?
-
Is there anything else?
When we are done with these questions, you will get an official quote that
will lock in the prices for thirty days. You can order any time using
that quote.

Detailed Instructions
1. What is the name of the book?
All of our quotes are based on knowing the name of the book the desired
merchandise is in. All you need to do is enter the first few characters
of any word in the book name and then click on the "BOOK SEARCH" button.
All of books that start with those characters or have those characters
as the start of any word in the book name will next be displayed.
You then simply click on the book that you want and then click on the "GO"
button.
You can also search for the book by using the item or pattern number.
Simply enter the first few characters of the pattern number and then click
on the "PATTERN SEARCH" button. Dashes and other special characters
count in this search so if you think there might be variations (i.e. with
or without a dash), you might try different variations. The items
will be displayed with the book the item is in. You then simply click
on the book that you want and then click on the "GO" button. All
items in that book will be displayed and you will need to confirm the pattern
number as described in instruction 2 below.

2. What is the pattern number or page number?
Once you identify the book, all pattern numbers and page numbers are displayed.
The pattern numbers are at the top of the list and the page numbers
come next. You simply click on the one you want from the pull down list
and then click on the "GO" button. ( If you do not see the item number
nor the page number, you will need to send an e-mail in order to get a
price.)
If you decide here that you do not want this book you can start the
search over as described in instruction 1 above.
If you already have entered at least one other item, you can forget
this search and jump to the "shopping cart" page.

3. How many do you want?
Our pricing is normally dependent on the quantity desired. Please
note that, unless the book says otherwise, wallpaper needs to be
ordered in even quantities (2, 4, 6, 8, etc.) as it is sold in single rolls
but only shipped in double rolls while border is sold in single 5 yard
spools and fabric is sold in yards. Enter the quantity and click "GO" and
the price is displayed in a "shopping basket" format.
If you are ordering by page number rather than by pattern number, be
sure to describe the pattern fully to assure that you get the correct merchandise.
Sometimes different copies of the same book have different page number.
The "Pattern ID Service" assures you of getting the right pattern.
If you decide here that you do not want this book you can start the
search over as described in instruction 1 above.
If you already have entered at least one other item, you can forget
this search and jump to the "shopping cart" page.

4. Is there anything else?
The shopping basket lets you add as many items as you wish. The choices
you have when the shopping basket is displayed are:
-
ADD NEW ITEMS. Choose the appropriate "SEARCH" button and again answer
the question: What is the name of the book?
-
MAKE THIS A QUOTE. As you go through the process, you may notice
that a number is displayed starting with an "I". This is and "Inquiry
Number" which goes away after a day or two. When you make your inquiry
a quote, you will be given a number that starts with a "Q". Be sure
to print out the quote once it is displayed so you can retrieve it again
and make it an order any time within 30 days. You will also need
to use the same phone number to access the quote.
-
MAKE THIS AN ORDER. You can go directly from the inquiry to an order
without making it a quote if you desire. The computer will switch
to a secure site to take credit card information.
