To this, I say, "banana oil!" ;-)  While Schaff does write this in their
literature, they will accept orders from anyone as long as you enclose proper
payment, etc.  There is a minimum order, but you won't have trouble if you
are shopping the way most of us do.  My largest orders are never over $100.
