If I win, how do I pay?

For fastest delivery upon receipt of funds, you should pay with a bank wire, cashiers check or bank money orders, or have previously arranged credit with Heritage. Payments can be made via eCheck, although payments via personal or corporate checks may be held 5 days or more for the funds to clear prior to shipping. Payments with credit cards (Visa and Master Card only, up to $10,000 from non-dealers at our discretion) must be shipped to the billing address on the credit card for all new customers (some restrictions apply). If the address we have for you doesn't match the credit card address, the shipment will be held and you will be notified.
