New Payment Possibility!:   
This method of bank account to bank account transfer is becoming more popular. One can send funds directly from a Popmoney account or via an individual's bank account if the bank uses Popmoney.
To promote this method of payment, we are offering 1% back on purchases made using Popmoney!  Contact us and we will provide you with an updated total for your purchase including the shipping and insurance.
