Email your PO to us

Everything we need is already on your PO, so there is no form to fill out here.

Tell us how you plan to pay

Credit card, check, or ACH. If you are paying by direct deposit, say so up front. Deposits arrive with no paperwork attached, and we release our banking details only after we have verified your institution. The declaration page in the Vendor Packet covers this.

Don't have a quote yet? Add what you want to the cart and choose the quote option at checkout. See how quotes work.
A note on payment. We are glad to invoice you net 30. If paying by card today is easier on your end, that gets your order moving faster and saves everyone the paperwork.

What happens next

  1. We acknowledge your PO. A real person reads it and replies. If anything is unclear we ask before we act, not after.
  2. We check every line. We match your PO against your quote, confirm pricing and quantities, and flag anything that does not line up before we charge a thing.
  3. We confirm your ship date in writing. This is the big one. Tell us the date you want it and we will hold the order until then.
  4. We ship, you get tracking. Tracking goes out by email the day it leaves us.
  5. Invoicing follows your terms. Net 30 invoices go to whatever billing address and contact you put on the PO.
Ordering early? Good. We can hold a shipment up to 12 months out. Put the ship date right on your PO. These are living cultures, so we time delivery to the week you actually teach the lab, not the week you bought it.
