How to use the Shopping Cart

Using the Shopping Cart is easy. Once you have found an item that interests you, simply click the "Add to Shopping Cart" button. This button can be found on any item's detail page, to the right of the price information.


 
  • What is the Shopping Cart?

    Your Shopping Cart lists the items you have chosen to buy or to obtain a price. You can modify the contents of your Shopping Cart before proceeding to the next stage, when you will be asked for your details to complete your order. You will still be able to change your order before placing it.

    Once you have found an item that interests you, simply click the "ADD TO SHOPPING CART" or "BUY" button. This button(s) can be found on any item's detail page, to the right of the price information. When you have finished adding items to your Shopping Cart, click the Shopping Cart icon (in the top right hand corner of every page of our site).

    Enter a quantity for each of the items in your Shopping Cart. When you have finished entering the quantity press the "UPDATE CART" button to see the prices recalculated to reflect your change.

    Continue Shopping by pressing buttons located on the top of each page or hit the "BACK" button on your Internet Browser.
