Can I place an order without setting up an account with you?
Yes, it is possible to order without creating an account with us. After placing items in your cart and when you are ready to check out, you will be prompted to log in to your existing account or create a new account. You can also check out without an account. All you would need to do is to provide us with the ship-to and bill-to information. After the transaction, all your personal information will not be saved on our system.
What is the difference between creating an account and placing order without an account?
Creating an account with us will help in your future purchasing as the system will store your shipping and billing addresses (but not your credit card information). Furthermore, you will be able to check your order history by logging in. Without an account, all your information will not be stored, and each time, to place an order, you would have to provide us all your personal information again.
