Thank you for your interest in this item. First, we do not have an online purchase system. This is due to our concern for liability issues relating to the identity theft on the internet in general. Although secure systems are available throughout online businesses, we at Coty's Treasures feel it prudent not to risk customer security in order to process orders more quickly. We hope you understand our position and share our concerns for your internet security interests.

With that out of the way, if you wish to purchase an item, you will need to complete a brief, online form which requires your basic contact information which we do not distribute or sell to anyone. Please be sure to include your name, email address and the item(s) you wish to purchase.

Once we receive your purchase request, we will email you an invoice with the payment amount within 24-48 hours. From that point, you will have approximately seven days to send payment. During this time, we will place your item on reserve until we receive payment in the form of personal check or USPS money order.

For those insisting on payment via internet, we have a PayPal account setup. For those wishing to transact more securely via third party, we also have an Ebay account which is in good standing since opening the account in 2001. However, there is a fee (15% of total sale) we charge to cover the cost of dealing with Ebay, and the time to create a custom listing for such a transaction. From our standpoint, a USPS money order is the most preferred way to go. Please let us know which payment method you prefer when you make your purchase request.

If you wish to purchase an original photograph, we will only reserve it for you for a period of seven days. After seven days, if we have not yet received payment, any original item(s) you had requested to purchase will be back on the market available for others to purchase.

Regarding originals, the prices set are fixed and non-negotiable due to rarity and our overall desire to see those who most treasure them to invest in them for their own posterity.

Regarding reprints, we offer discounts for multiple orders and combine shipping for further savings to you. Please inquire on the order form if you wish to purchase multiple reprints.

If you still wish to purchase, please proceed to the order form. Thank you again for supporting our efforts to reunite folks with their ancestors' photographs and keepsake possessions.
