Site Update!
And some shipping charges unfortunately.
It's been a long time coming, but the new website is here. By a long time I mean I've known I should update the website for awhile, not that I actually worked on it--far too many other things to work on. Such is life.
With the new website comes a new payment processor and shipping charges (boo! we know). We were shipping books and journals by USPS Media Mail for $1.89 back in the day and that was an alright cost to eat across the board. Media Mail is still the cheapest way to ship, but it now starts at $4.63 it just isn't sustainable for us to pay for it. If we can cut military spending and bombs for Isreal to drop on children in Gaza, maybe we can reinvest that into our nations' services and get affordable shipping again. We'd love to pay for your shipping again--tell the govt. to get on that.
We've moved off PayPal to Stripe so fingers crossed we don't find any big issues. It's all looked good so far, and the integration experience was decent. Now we have carts on our website and we can calculate our own shipping before letting Stripe handle payments.
New shipping rates are $5 for the first item, and $1 per additional item. We were locked into a constant shipping charge per book, which meant it either wasn't enough for single books or way too much for multiple books.
In other news we've got a couple books slated for later this summer and fall. So keep you eyes open for that. We've also got some events planned focused on cultivating a meeting space for the literary community around Tulsa and beyond. Lots of plans, and work and capitalism makes sure they move slow.
But we're moving, damnit.
