Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the more frequent or recent questions that we have had on our web site. We will add or delete them over time as seems appropriate.

Should I get an email confirming my order?

Yes. You will always get an email confirming your order if there is not a technical problem. Confirming emails will be generated by Act II Books and Puppets since we share a common database. If you placed an order and were did not get an email confirming your order, then we may not have gotten an email either. Contact us to confirm your order.

I can not seem to get my credit card submitted online.

There are several possible reasons for this: 1) you entered an incorrect card number, expiration date, the name on the credit card, or billing address. Check your information carefully and try to resubmit.

Sometimes the system is busy or connections do fail. If you still can not process the card, you might try another card in case the bank has some of your billing status incorrect. You may always send us a check in the mail with the shipping and billing information: name, address (street, city, state, Zip code), and what you want. Make the check out to Act II Books and Puppets. If you need help figuring out the postage and total, send an email to us at richardg@childrensaudiobooks.com

Can you ship books overseas?

Yes, we ship books to any location that the US Post Office delivers. We have shipped to Japan, China, Germany, France, Iceland, New Zeland, Canada, and all over the United states to name a few locations. See our shipping information for details on shipping costs. You can order online and the shipping charges will be automatically calculated for surface mail delivery.

I am concerned about giving you my credit card over the internet. Is it safe?

We have added secure online credit card processing to make your purchase as easy and safe as possible. The process is private and encrypted to protect you. While it is always important to protect your credit card information, nothing is 100% safe. We make every effort to keep you informed of your purchase, including when it was shipped. We also provide an invoice with you shipment as a record of your purchase. You will receive an electronic confirmation of your order so that you know your card was processed. Please feel free to contact us by any of the other means of communication to order if you are still uncertain about online ordering.
