Shipping
Before Hurricane Michael, we lived about five miles from the post office in Youngstown, FL, which was very convenient, and nearly all of our orders were shipped within a couple of days. Now, as we were forced to move after the hurricane, we live in a very remote area and it is a long drive to any post office. So it may sometimes take up to two weeks to ship an order, depending on how many orders we have. I apologize for this situation, but it is beyond my control.

T-Shirts
All Christogenea T-Shirts are on hold, unavailable, because Spreadshirt.com began to monitor and prohibit certain of our designs. Sonnetshirts.net had management problems and closed almost as soon as we made a full switch to them, and we are having problems finding another suitable vendor.
CDs
Christogenea CDs have been discontinued, as Paypal has forced Trepstar.com to cancel our accounts. We may not offer CDs again, as the work involved in finding another vendor and configuring all of our titles is too great for the number of prospective sales. CDs are rapidly becoming obsolete in favor of memory card technology such as USB memory sticks and SD cards. Many new laptops no longer have CD players.
The following concerns our book sales, which we now take full responsibility for here at Christogenea:
Caveat Emptor
We have no return policy. We expect anyone who purchases our books to be familiar with our work before doing so. If you are not, please go to Christogenea.org where all of our writings are freely available. Then if you so desire, you may make a more prudent decision as to whether or not you should purchase our books. In special cases, we may accept returns, and offer refunds for whatever we feel we are able to restock, but we will not refund any shipping costs.
U.S. Shipping
Our shipping costs are higher than a large company with a commercial contract that ships thousands of books each day. Not even large companies can compete with Amazon. However compared to some companies, our rates are actually inexpensive.
For instance, Magcloud charges $5.53 to package and ship just one of our Saxon Messenger magazines via the U.S. Postal Service, $7.11 via UPS Ground, and $12.19 via UPS 3-day. That is more expensive than we charge to ship one book via corresponding USPS Media Mail, for which we must charge $4.50 for the first book, and Priority Mail services for which we charge, and are charged in turn, $7.35 for one book, which typically arrives at its destination in 2 or 3 days.
International Shipping
Shipping costs are incredibly high for overseas shipments. We are still adjusting shipping costs, especially where we are still waiting to determine how many books will fit into various size cartons and envelopes, so if anyone wants to place an order for more than a few books you may want to contact us first.
A Priority Mail envelope can hold up to three of our Christogenea New Testaments, and costs $35.65 to ship to anywhere in Europe, whether it contains one book or three. The amount may be slightly different, but the same situation exists for shipping elsewhere outside the United States. If at least three books at a time are ordered, it will still cost about $11 per book to ship to Europe. That is almost as much as the book itself, but it is significantly lower than ordering a single book.
Our International Shipping Policies
We are only configured to offer standard USPS Priority Mail shipping to traditionally White Christian nations. If you reside in a country which is not configured, the shipping cost is $40 per item regardless of the actual amount of postage. You are free to write us if you have special circumstances and want us to ship to any other country, and at our discretion we will make an adjustment for you.
There is a special additional per-item fee of $60,000 (six million cents) if you want us to ship to Israel. This is not a joke. Here at Christogenea, we discriminate. If you do not like these terms, you will probably not like our books and perhaps you should go elsewhere for your reading enjoyment.
