| Placing your order by phone
is the quickest way to get your order into the queue, or you can mail
it.. We accept
phone orders backed by credit card (Visa, MasterCard or Discover). We do
not charge your credit card until the day the order is shipped. A non
refundable deposit may be debited on special order items. Orders can
also be mailed in with payment by check, money order, or credit card.
Personal or business checks may be held for clearance.
A word on Debit cards. While Debit cards are an acceptable means of payment, please be aware that we will not accept a request to call you first before running your card in preparation for shipping. As been mentioned, we charge credit cards on the day we ship and it is the responsibility of the Debit card owner to be sure there are funds available for the transaction. We will not be held responsible for any overdraft charges from your bank, because you neglected to have funds available in your account to complete the sale! It is suggested that you log the amount of the sale into your check register at the time you place the order even though the sale will unlikely occur for several months down the road. If this is a problem, we suggest you use some other method of payment. Give us a call if you have any questions on this policy. Credit card orders must include the 3 digit security code on the back of the card, as well as the address that is associated with the billing statement of the card you are using. A different ship to address is ok, but must be noted separately on the order form. You must notify us immediately of any change in shipping address from the time the order is originally placed. If the security code or billing address is omitted from your order, or doesn't match up, it will further delay the processing of your order. Please notify us of any change in expiration date or other pertinent card info. Sorry, but we do not accept requests to send COD. All orders must be paid in full before they can leave the shop. Use browser print button to print Order form , but not before reading the ordering information listed above

take note: It has come to our attention that some individuals have been ordering our product (most notably our model VM-2) for no other reason than for speculative sales on auction sites such as ebay. While we may admire the entrepreneurial aspect of those individuals and are flattered that some bidders are willing to pay well over 2 1/2 times the retail price just to have the item now instead of 6 months down the road. We are not impressed with the fact that some of these sellers have no real personal need for the product other than to make a quick profit on an internet sale and for that we already have authorized dealers. Therefore, it is our policy going forward, that we will not accept any order, or an addition to any order and will cancel any order that has the earmarks of an order destined for speculative, or unauthorized dealer sales. As a manufacturer, we reserve the right to accept, decline or cancel any order, at any time, for any reason and that includes limiting the items on an individuals order. Furthermore, the Ebay speculators, as we determine who they are, will be forever relegated to our 'No Orders' list and we will ask our dealers to avoid these individuals as well. Starting April 1 2009, we will only allow up to two VM-2 holsters per customer to any new order and they must be for different model guns! Over the last couple years there have been numerous problems with folks adding holsters to their orders, just to sell on auction sites such as Ebay for profit. This self serving act only serves to jam up the system so that people that have a real need for those holsters, are unable to obtain a slot in our monthly quota because some greedy individual uses up more than their personally needed share of our monthly allotment to sell for their own personal gain. (our quotas are based on total monetary value for the month and not the actual number of orders taken) When these people are caught (and we do go back and review previous orders for duplication) they are forever banned from ever doing business with us again. I realize the limitation on how many VM-2's one can order won't stop the practice of "buying to sell" completely, but it will hopefully make it harder for these folks to be profitable.

Keyword spamming is also in direct violation of Ebay's posting rules and will be reported to Ebay as the events occur. Keyword spamming is using the brand name of one company to draw attention to the product of another. Be aware the trade name "Milt Sparks" is a registered US trademark. Using the "Milt Sparks" trade name in association with the selling of a personally owned, Milt Sparks product, is totally acceptable. Using the "Milt Sparks" trade name as a keyword in the auction listing of another makers product, just to bring attention to that product in product searches, is NOT acceptable! That is what is referred to by Ebay as "Search and Browse Manipulation". And since "Milt Sparks" is a registered US trademark, its misapplication is also enforceable under Ebay's VeRO program. We are starting to take this crap seriously!

While every effort is made to expedite your order in a timely manner, |  |
|
| there is always the inevitable backlog situation. Backlogs have been the bane of Milt Sparks Holsters for as long as we have been in business. One of the most frequently asked questions is "Why does it take so long to have a holster made?" The answer is that the demand for our product has always exceeded our | |||
| ability to produce. It
doesn't take so long to actually make the holster, its the processing of
the hundreds of orders that are ahead of
yours that keeps us behind. It has been our past experience that no matter how many craftsmen we add to the staff, when
our delivery times drop, the demand picks up and we are soon back in the same
situation. Still, we are trying to address the problem and recently we have
added an extra employee, now bringing us up to six.
Information concerning our current delivery schedule can be viewed by visiting this page. We understand that many of you cannot wait the time it takes to get our product direct from us. For those who cannot wait, I may suggest that you contact one of our dealers listed at the bottom of this page for possible in-stock delivery. |

Below is a list of dealers that carry the Milt Sparks product. The list is not extensive, as we require a bazillion dollar minimum purchase to qualify for a piddle of a discount. These folks deserve your patronage. Please note that only the businesses listed below are considered by us to be authorized, Milt Sparks dealers. There has been a moratorium in effect for quite some time now in regards to adding new dealer accounts to our list. Every year we are deluged with requests from prospective clients who would like to stock our product for resale. But because of our limited production capability's, we are just not able to accomodate those requests. Any person/business claiming to be a Milt Sparks dealer that is not specifically listed below, is not authorized by us to operate in that capacity. Milt Sparks Holsters is a registered US trademark and is protected as such. Unauthorized use of our trademark, or use of copyrighted material off this website is not permitted. Lighning
