How to Order from Black Bear

We are a mail order company and welcome your inquiries.

Things to Consider

Call us for help estimating your wood requirements. You can order the amount of wood, wire, and NBW's you need.  Prepay your order by check or money order, or charge it to Visa, Master Card, or JCB.  Sales Tax: Texas residents must add 6.75% to the total purchase price.

All prices, discounts, and specifications of products are subject to change without notice.

Allow about a week for delivery.  Expedited shipping is available.

Back Orders:

The minimum back order is $10.  If the original order qualified for free shipping, then the back order will be shipped free.  You will not be charged until the item is shipped.  If your back order is under $10 you may add items to be charged and shipped with it.  Or you may cancel the back ordered item.  Or you may cancel the entire order.

If you add items to the back ordered item, your shipping charge is the difference between $6 and the back order item shipping charge.

To Order over the Web:

The easiest way is to use our secure shopping cart function.  Simply load up your shopping cart and enter your shipping and charge card information.  You can even open a secure account that remembers this information for your next order.

You can access your shopping cart at any time by clicking the green VIEW SHOPPING CART football-shaped button in the upper left corner of any of the price list pages.

To Order by e-mail:

You can send us an e-mail using the "Contact Black Bear" button.  Include the part numbers or other descriptions of what you want to order.  Include a phone number and when you can be reached.  We'll call for a credit card number.  We recommend that you DO NOT SEND YOUR CREDIT CARD NUMBER via e-mail.
