Searching For A Book:
You can search for a book by entering the search criteria in the search box on top of any page. You may enter a title, author, isbn (10 or 13 digit) or any keyword related to the book.

Placing an Order
Once you have found the book you want to purchase, add it to your cart and click on "Checkout". The succeeding pages will allow you to enter your shipping address and credit card information. You have the option to save your shipping address and credit card information for future purchases. This is only for your convinience and is not required by the site. Once you have entered your shipping and billing information, you can place the order. A confirmation page will appear giving you one or more order numbers. Also, an email containing the same details is sent out to you immedietly.

Acceptable Payment Method
Everytext.com accepts Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover Cards at this time. You can use your debit/check card as long as they have a MasterCard/Visa logo.

Shipping Methods, Rates & Delivery Times
If your shipping address is in the US, you have two shipping options:
Media Mail: Books shipped through media mail typically arrive in 5-14 business days. Use this method of shipping only if you are not in a dire need of the book. The shipping charges for the first book is $3.99. If your order contains more than one book, the shipping charges are $1.99 if bought from the same seller or $3.99 if bought from adifferent seller. This is simply becuase shipping additional books will be cheaper for the same seller but will cost the same if the sellers are different for different books.
Priority Mail: Books shipped through priority mail typically arrive in 2-5 business days. We strongly recommend using this shipping method if you need your book(s) urgently. The shipping charges for the first book is $6.5. If your order contains more than one book, the shipping charges are $3.5 if bought from the same seller or $6.5 if bought from adifferent seller. This is simply becuase shipping additional books will be cheaper for the same seller but will cost the same if the sellers are different for different books.
Please note that the above shipping delivery time estimates apply only to 48 states. Shipping times to AK and HI may be longer.

For non-US shipping addresses, the seller is allowed to set shipping rates. These shipping rates can be found on the search results page after you have searched for your book.

Please note that the shipping charges are not refundable in this case. However, your shipping charges will be refunded in full and you may also be entitled to get reimbursed for the return shipping charges if the seller failed to ship the book(s) on time and you recieved your order past the due date and do not want to keep the book(s); or if the book arrived damaged or materially different from what the seller described it as in his/her listing; or if the condition of the book was not as described by the seller in his/her listing.

Declined Payments
It is not uncommon for a credit card purchase to fail. There are several reasons why your credit card may decline the charge. Almost all declined credit card payments are due to an error in your credit card information. Please make sure you enter your card information and billing address correctly. The billing address is where you recieve the monthly credit card statements and it may be different than your shipping address. If your credit card is repeatedly declined; we recommend calling the card issuing bank about this or try using another credit card for your purchase.
