verb mail-orders · mail-ordering · mail-ordered

To buy or sell goods to be delivered by mail. If you want to buy one of the albums reviewed in my article, or any women's music recording, it's not necessary to mail order them unless you can't get to a store. Thanks to Merle and other local distributors around the country, many stores carry women's music.
