If we receive verification of sufficient funds, your order will be completed and transferred securely to Thamel.com. Your account will be charged in 24 to 48 hours.

6. Why isn't mysite working with my browser?

Ordering from our site does not require the latest and greatest technology, but it does require that you're using an SSL-compliant browser (this means it has a "secure" mode.) Web TV and some browsers behind company firewalls cannot support secure ordering.

For best results, we recommend using Netscape Navigator 3.02 or later, or Microsoft's Internet Explorer 3.02 or later. For AOL users, we recommend the 3.0 or later AOL browser for PC's or the 4.0 browser for Macs.Click one of the following links if you'd like to download a new version of Netscape, Internet Explorer or AOL.

Also, your browser preferences must be set up to accept "cookies", otherwise no items will show up in your basket.
