Simply e-mail palh@aol.com and palhbooks@gmail.com the items you want to order to confirm availability and to start a one week hold. Please include your name, mailing address, telephone, and fax number if any.
We accept major credit cards, Paypal, money order, bank check, as well as personal checks. Personal checks have to clear, which may take 10 days.
Some people have asked why we do not have an internet Shopping Cart to facilitate their use of their credit card. PALH is a small business that sells one of a kind items, some of them very rare. When a client expresses interest in any item, we double check to make sure the item is indeed available and place it on hold for them. Clients may phone or fax the credit card information, for maximum security; call US 310-452-1195. Clients may also send their credit card information in 2 separate emails which makes it impossible for hackers to get the information, and which therefore protects our clients.
Shipping rates as follows. Price quoted is for the first normal-sized book (under 4 lbs). Oversized books cost more. In the US, add $1.00 for each additional book. For Canada and International, we can get the price of shipping for 2 or more books. Delivery confirmation and insurance is extra.
Expensive items will be sent via USPS Express Mail (domestic is $17.50; international is $27.95); or via preference of buyer.
All orders and inquiries will be answered as quickly as possible.

OTHER FEEDBACK FROM OUR CLIENTS:
"Your package with all the books has arrived safe and sound here here in Sweden, thanks for everything. We were all excited when we opened the box at home, and I must say that I am very pleased with all the books. So far I have just had time to skim through the books, but they are beautifully illustrated and seem very well written. I am happy to be the new owner of them and I am sure they will give our children joy when they get older..." from a client in Linkoping, Sweden, 3/25/04
"It (antique rosary) arrived safely and was a delightful gift peacefully waiting for me outside my apartment door as I was just on my way out to do some extra filing work for a 74 year old fellow with Parkinson's. I turned right around and went back inside the apartment and enjoyed opening the package which was very securely wrapped. I think I will give the little red velvet bag to a 4th grade Korean girl whom I tutor in English. Presently, I will enjoy this pearl energy and all that took place from the oyster to the cross but definitely in the future, you will hear from me again. Thank you for following your guidance and sharing literature and gifts from the Philippines." from a client in Washington D.C., 3/28/04
"I just received the 3 items. The two unique rosaries were originally destined to be a gift, but I like them so much, I'm keeping all for myself! I am wearing the cross now. I really appreciate the more-than-prompt delivery. Thank you again, and I look forward to many new purchases in the future." from a client in Arizona, 4/1/05
"I received the rosary yesterday and it's really very lovely; the picture didn't really do any justice with it...I didn't wait for my mother's birthday to come to give it to her, I gave it to her last night and she almost cried when she saw it, she's really very, very happy. You know that's the first time I saw again the real smile on her face after my Father died last year.....thank you very much...and I'm really very satisfied with the service, delivery was really on time." from a client in Dubai 4/19/05

"I picked up your rosary at the Post Office yesterday afternoon, and
it is beautiful. Your description was very accurate. I have never seen a crucifix
like that, and the facets are more numerous than usual, and must have taken
a long time for someone to cut. You rare also right as far as recognizing that
it is old and original and much more solid than the one I had bought on E___.
It is heavy, but the links seem solid." from a client in Minnesota,

You have some books I like the look of ... so you'll probably hear from me again in 2007." from a client in New Zealand, 12/10/06
"I received the rosary today (thurs.) It is better than I ever expected ! Thank you for the very prompt service.

"The rosaries have just arrived, morning 22 September, without problems
- to the door. I am delighted - they are even nicer if possible than in the
photos. I love it that the clear rosary was a gift in 1940, which exactly dates
it. It and the aquamarine do feel nice in the hand. Thank you so much for these.
Odd that they have travelled now to Africa, but are still in the same Home!
In Christ, " from a client in Pretoria, South Africa 9/22/09
