Also, after mail ordering from very many companies, I have found that the whole key is, usually, do they have the product in stock. If they do, they will send it very promptly, they want your money. If they don't, they will usually tell you they do, and then when you don't get your product and start calling them back, they will start giving you a song and dance routine. In cases like this, the earlier you cancel the order, the better.
