How do I order online?
Placing an order online is a simple 3 step process:
- Finding an item
- Gather items in the Shopping Cart
- Place order
1. You can use the simple search box on the homepage to find items, alternatively, you can browse through the pages on the website to find featured items.
2. When you find an item you wish to purchase, click on the button/text link called "Add to Cart". You will then be transferred to a screen that details all the items you have added to your cart in your shopping session. You can continue to visit pages and search for more items to purchase - your shopping cart will retain its items unless you remove them or your computer session has timed-out due to inactivity.
3. When you have gathered the items you wish to purchase into your shopping cart you should then choose a Shipping method on the Shopping Cart page. There are two options - choose the option that decribes the delivery location of your order.
When you are confident that the shopping cart accurately represents what you want to order, press the "Proceed to Payment" button to move on from the Shopping Cart.
When you have finished typing in your details, press the "Place Order" button to submit your order to MEA Books.
