Whatb is mail order business?

Answer 1

This is where goods are ordered by post and paid for by cheque or credit card. The goods are then delivered to your home.

Answer 2

pingu is very correct. a fine example is also how we used to pay by VPP earlier, before the credit cards came into being so popular & online buying still had'nt gained roots.

Answer 3

pingu is right in the description in brief.

In India, Burlyngton (I hope I spelled right) was one such famous mail order company in those days. Still a faint board of the company is seen in NOIDA, where they used to have their office.

Answer 4

I think its when you order for a product from a brochure or catalogue & the product it delivered to you through the post/mail. Payment is made on delivery, or could be in advance.
