PLEASE NOTE: We are BOTH IN THE OFFICE as of MONDAY 06/09,
BUT this is somewhat Temporary,
So we will be keeping the Yellow Notification up through EARLY JULY!!
As we will be doing 4 shows over the next 3 weekends, and I will be on then road with most of our Military Artifacts from 6/18 to as late as 7/04 so there could be delays in shipping!!
Update 06/09/25: WE ARE still EXPERIENCING SOME TECHNICAL ISSUES WITH non-PayPal CREDIT CARD PURCHASES!!
We Hope to FINALLY Have this Issue CORRECTED by July or August!!
If you would like to PAY for an Artifact with a CREDIT CARD, please email and I will get an invoice emailed to you ASAP!
We are HAPPY TO ACCEPT YOUR ORDERS during this time, and we will promptly SHIP MOST orders within ONE Business Day of Receipt of Payment!
