L P King operates as a sole trader with the business name of Mountain Mist Productions being a fully registered business Australian business (BN17129114). Oldies at Large is an off-shoot of the main publishing site of www.1stmist.com. All books offered for sale through the site are processed electronically by Paymate or via snail mail cheques or money orders. Paymate www.paymate.com.au was chosen to take care of all credit card transactions in a fully secure manner and they utilise the highest encryption standards so your details are always safe.

There is no need to register to make a payment. Paymate provides information for you regarding fees, conversions etc. You must pay in Australian dollars and books will be shipped immediately Paymate notifies that the funds are cleared.

Paymate sends you (and us) an email immediately a payment has been made and you will receive an email from Oldies at Large as soon as possible thereafter confirming your Order Number and telling you that your Order is in the system and your books will ship as soon as we receive Paymate clearance. This is usually in 1 -3 days. Similarly we require approximately 3 days for cheques to clear.
Please allow up to 2 weeks delivery within Australia and about 3 weeks for overseas, depending on your location. These times may vary and are contingent on so many things these days so they are only a guide. The major thing we have found is that present security concerns overseas may delay delivery. Please remember that Print on Demand relates to the fact that we are able to store books in our Printer's system and order on a needs basis rather than having to buy huge quantities of books upfront. "On Demand" is a term relative to Publishers not Buyers; and it does not mean instant delivery - the same conditions apply for ordering our books as with anything you order over the Internet. We will at all times keep you appraised of your Order and please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any concerns.
If you are overseas here is an exchange rate checker: http://www.x-rates.com/calculator.html
