| 1. Do you have any old copies of such and such a book that is now out of print? |
| If you don't see a certain title (that we published) on our website it means that we don't have any copies left to sell. |

| 2. Do you have any old copies of such and such a previous printing of such and such a book? |
| We only have one printing of each title in stock. When we make a new printing we're always careful to sell out the old printing before we start selling the new one. There are no more copies of the first edition of the Great Horologion left. There are no copies of the Psalter with the light blue cover left. You might find what you are looking for on eBay or Amazon. |

| Yes. If you are a reseller and are an existing or new customer, we have a limited number of discounts available to you.

- We will flag your account for bookstore discounts and send you an email. The next time you log on you will see the bookstore discount prices
Please note:
- Existing bookstore customers who have not yet ordered online are also asked to make an account on this website and email us first before making an order
- You will see a special message on the Home page of this site indicating your bookstore discount status
- The discounts are listed in a schedule available on request
- The discounts apply only for items to be resold at a bookstore. For other purchases, please use another account

| 7. Are all of the icons in stock? |
| Yes and no. The 8 x 10 size is our "regular" size. We endeavor to keep this size in stock at all times. Nearly all of the 8 x 10 icons are ready to ship or about ready to ship. Other sizes (enlargements or reductions) are made to order and usually take about a month to complete. |

| 8. Are your icons blessed before being sold? |
| No. We have no blessing service for the icons we sell. Many maintain, as do we, that the icon is sanctified already by virtue of the holy image portrayed; and of course, blessings are never sold. In some traditions, a prayer is said with sprinkling of Holy Water, in others the icons are placed in the altar for 40 days. |

| 9. I received my order and noticed several icons were not 8 x 10 inches. Why does the web site say "8 x 10" and the width of the icons I received is less than that? |
| As is noted in several places, the "8 x 10" designation is only approximate. The dimensions of the hand-painted icons from which the reproductions are made vary. We use one dimension, the height (10 inches) for consistency and let the other dimension (the width) fall where it may. Most of the regular size icons we sell are about 8 x 10 inches, hence the designation. |
