Sending the 3 digit security code:
For extra security, we don't ask for your VCC2 number on line. (This is the set of 3 digits found on the back of your card, over the signature area...usually, the last four numbers of your account are reprinted first, followed by these three new numbers). Instead, we ask that you send us a separate e-mail, with just your name and the 3 digit number. This is completely useless to anyone else, but helps insure that your card really belongs to you and that your order is valid. We put your e-mail together with your order, and when your order is ready, we put the card through with the VCC2 number.
If for any reason you don't want to send the VCC2 number, we'll try to process your card without it. Some bank card issuers (your bank) may require the number for security, while others may not. If your bank won't accept the card without the security code, we'll contact you and see if you want to provide the number or talk to your bank about it. We would just as soon not have to ask for it, but it may be required by some banks. It is most often required for orders that come from other countries -- not by us, but by the issuing bank.
