What People are Saying
"Where the hell is Morgan Chai? She's supposed to be at the top of New York's Best Seller List!"
"I have only had Retrieved for less than two hours and my world has come to a halt because I can't put it down. My husband will just have to order out tonight if he expects dinner."
"...but Fred had to go to California and he took the book with him. He's never done that before, so it says a lot about it."

Using PayPal
We only accept US funds to start off with.
In a nutshell, using PayPal it's really easy. You click on a "Buy Now" or "Add to Cart" shopping button. They will take you to a secure PayPal webpage where all you have to do is follow the prompts and/or instructions to use your own PayPal account or your Visa, Master Card, American Express, or your Discover card. That's it.
We also use the latest encrypted PayPal buttons that protects both the buyer and seller.
For your convenience we've set up "Buy Now" or "Add to Cart" and "View Cart" buttons on every page where there is something to purchase. What you see is what you pay. There are no hidden fees or charges. Promise.
As a norm, we will only ship in the United States, but, if you are "out of country" and super determined to buy something we have, then you have to contact us first. From there we can quote you the proper shipping rate for an item based on your location. Once agreed upon we will make a special PayPal button for you to use for the purchase. Once you make that purchase, we will remove the button and page to prevent them from being used by anyone else. Please, no crazy promises of checks or special payment options.
We cannot, and do not collect any of your personal information, even your credit card info. That's done via PayPal's secure web site. We NEVER get your personal information.
What we do get is notification that you have purchased something, and we get your shipping address, but that's it.
When you purchase via any "Buy Now" or "Add to Cart" button, PayPal will notify us immediately of your purchase. At that time we are legally obligated to ship the item(s) to you ASAP, and as a courtesy we'll provide you with shipping and/or tracking numbers if you ask for it. We'll even email you a copy of the shipping/mailing receipt (if you ask).
Don't hassle us with your strange offers of how to purchase an item, and don't even bother asking us to send anything to Africa or Nigeria (unless, of course, you purchase through this site the proper way).
There is only one way to purchase over the Internet that legally protects both us AND you, and that's through a secure site. For us it's through PayPal or through their Credit Card option, both via the "Buy Now" or "Add To Cart" buttons.
We do not accept any other form of payment, (other than cash locally) because there are so many scams going on. To be honest, PayPal is much more secure and fool-proof.
And if anyone ever asks you for your personal information, to include
your credit card info or personal data, on anything but a secure site,
that's the time to GET OFF THAT SITE!!! Would you give your credit card
info to a stranger at your door? Of course not! So, why would you do it
over an unsecured web site on the internet? I hope never! And you can
tell if you are on a secured web page by a little closed "Padlock"
icon ( 
) usually on the lower right of the page window. If it isn't there, it
isn't secure so don't provide your personal information. The padlock might
be one of several colors as well. The point is that it means your transaction
is being encrypted for security.
We take selling over the Internet dead serious. Please do not contact us with strange requests like asking for our PayPal account number or whatever, as so many scammers do. We are very wary of scams and very up to date on them. Most importantly, we REPORT suspected fraud on a local, state, and federal level, and let the Feds do their job. We also forward suspicious email to PayPal when someone uses a supposed PayPal email address. So, let's not waste each other's time with this nonsense. If you are serious about buying an item, then let's do it the right way where we are both protected. Further Beyond, LLC has been at this since 2003 and has yet to have a single problem.

Thanks for putting up with my ranting about protecting yourself. It also protects Further Beyond, LLC.
