Ordering from Fi audio

Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 words Post Number: 4098 Registered: Jun-06 | Maybe it's just me. I don't know. I was trying to order an 18" Q off the website and according to their site, you don't have to be a Paypal member to order, yet it is their only payment option. Just what am I missing? I did email them but I'd like to know if anyone else has run into this hurdle. I do have a Paypal account, it's just that it takes 3-5 business days to add funds from my checking account. It just seems odd for me that a company only accepts Paypal as payment. Any ideas? |

I however, do not wish to drop $1000 just for the driver. I'd have to spend twice that to power it and the repercussions of me owning that sub would only shatter my relationship with my neighbors and probably get me arrested.  |

Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 words Post Number: 4117 Registered: Jun-06 |  Last night the only option was Paypal. I'll try again later tonight. I just don't want to wait the 5 days b4 I can order. Not to mention fees. Not that a fee would stop me, I just hate not having options. |

Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 3946 Registered: Jul-06 | paul on the checkout page it says, and i quote: "PayPal is the authorized payment processor for Fi Car Audio. You do not need to be a PayPal member to complete this transaction." |

Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 words Post Number: 4119 Registered: Jun-06 | Yes I read that too. But it still only shows one option to pay from. Maybe I'm retarded.  |
|
Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 words Post Number: 4120 Registered: Jun-06 | If they mean to use a credit card through Paypal then I'm still using Paypal. I would like to use a credit card straight, without Paypal. If you click on one of the credit card links, it takes you to a Paypal description page. Dunno. Maybe I AM retarded. |
|
Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 3955 Registered: Jul-06 | yea i saw that too...try and go next and see if you can just enter your credit card number and whatnot anyway without actually doing any paypal sh1t...i dunno what to tell you...i cant remember how it went for me... |

Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 words Post Number: 4155 Registered: Jun-06 | All is good. It was a little confusing but it went through with my cc. It still shows it as a Paypal transaction but with my cc info. At least my 18" is on it's way. Now to track down everything else I'm going to need.  Anyone know a link to somewhere I can find a good indoor neon light kit? |
