Create/edit a quote

Creating a quote is easy.

You will need to have an SPE login. If you don't have one already, you may want to create one before beginning the process (see below).

1. Load your shopping cart with the items you want to purchase
2. Select Checkout Now
3. Login (if you are not already logged in)
4. You'll be asked to enter or confirm your billing and shipping address (if different), then select Continue
5. Select your desired shipping method (middle of page)
6. Below the summary of your order are two options -- to save the order as a quote or to pay now
7. Select save as a quote
8. From the next screen you can print the quote. Quotes are valid for 90 days. After 90 days, pricing and shipping costs may be subject to change.
9. If you need wire transfer instructions, there is a button that will send you an email with wire transfer information. [You will need to be logged in.]
