GENERAL QUESTIONS
Q. What is Rainbowsauce.com?
A. Rainbowsauce is a collection of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender media. The main aim is to promote GLBT authors/books, however, we also have queer film, music, community magazines, comedy cd's, gay and lesbian pride graphics, pride jewellery and other queer gear! The purpose of Rainbowsauce is to show the truly diverse media that comes from the GLBTQ community.
Q. Why do I need a password
to view the free pride graphics?
A. People were linking directly to our free graphics instead of saving them for
use on their own website, this direct linking was starting to drain our
website's resources and pushing up the costs of keeping Rainbowsauce online :o(
Q. Why is Rainbowsauce affiliated with Amazon.com?
A. They have the largest range of gay and lesbian reading available online - that was the key. By linking to the various Amazon sites, we're able to introduce visitors to a truly diverse range of GLBT media.
Q. If I click through your site to
buy something from Amazon, does it add anything to the price?
A. Not at all! We've just made the searching process much easier - we may also
introduce you to gay and lesbian authors, musicians and films you've never seen
before. Rainbowsauce receives only 5% of sales made through Amazon - barely
enough to cover webhosting costs.
Q. Problems with Book Categories,
Reviews etc
A. GLBT Genre Books are so Diverse - we have done our best to categorize them correctly,
but of course, they often fit into more than one category. Time has been taken
to ensure all things are categorized correctly, but sometimes there are errors. Where Amazon has not supplied reviews/information on any title, we have
searched the web to verify of its relevance for our listings.
Q. Who chooses the items displayed on
the website?
A. Often, listings are just based on availability - we search the US, UK and
Canadian websites for:
VIDEOS, we've tried to list every known/available film in the gay and lesbian genre.
DVDS, we've listed as many titles as possible as not all films are on DVD as yet -
or available in all regions.
BOOKS, we've listed many featured books in each category, we'll be adding more as time
goes by.
MUSIC CDs, We've listed a select group of artists we think you might enjoy -
adding more all the time.
Q. I have a problem with an item I
purchased from Amazon...?
A. Please see Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk - whichever site you purchased the item from. The
administrators of RainbowSauce.com, Turtlewebs.com hold no responsibility for any
problems with Amazon transactions.
Q. My fave
film/book/cd isn't
listed, can you add it to your listings?
A. If it suits, sure! Send any suggestions to webmaster@rainbowsauce.com

Q. Your videos/DVDs/music cd's/books
etc don't have any prices?
A. Amazon is constantly discounting its prices or offering deals on multiple video
purchases, so we would be constantly changing along with Amazon - It's much easier for you

unless you search with our new search facility, it shows results with prices.

PRODUCT AVAILABILITY
Q. Why are some products only available in certain areas?
A. Although with videos we have managed to get around format problems by linking to
Amazon.co.uk (PAL) AND Amazon.com (NTSC), DVDs through Amazon.com and Amazon.ca are categorized
as
Region 1 (USA and Canada only). Amazon.co.uk carries Region 2 encoding (Europe, Middle
East & Japan only). Unfortunately these are the only DVDs we will be able to

able to purchase any of the DVDs available.)
