How I got a paypal account.

Love the caricature of Sober Irishman.

Since it says volume #1 I'm assuming there's a #2 coming along. Right? This is so awesome.

Indeed it is our intent to produce more. Sales to date indicate that we are better at this than making music.

...or that your free music, available on the Web, has generated interest in merchandise that tells the story of the Might Octopthorpe....

Dear sir,

In these troubled times $5.00 for anything is a bargain, and considering postage is included I simply had to have one.

Yours Faithfully

PS I ordered this item last night and am still waiting by the letterbox.

First mailings will go out today. We had to go buy some envelopes. Will send shipping confirmations once this happens. Thanks to everyone who has purchased.

For the rest of you, that free shipping deal will only last until I have a chance to change it, which will probably be tonight. This was an experiment to get a grip on shipping and paypal costs, and I am gonna have to add something as a shipping and handling charge.

So order now, before the price goes up!

Done and done. Gotta have one. Nice work!

The bad news:

0.45 paypal
0.83 postage
0.10 envelope
-----
1.38 shipping added to the order form

The good news:

Quantity option added. You can now order more than one!
Also, free shipping on 5 or more!
