Q1 : I am not a registered trader, will you supply me ?

Yes, we will supply but you must understand that you are buying on a trade basis and under our terms and conditions of sale. Customer Returns do not suit everyone so please take the time to gather all the information before you place an order.

Q2 : I work from home can you deliver to me there ?

Yes we can. Pallet deliveries are made by Pallex who are a business to business service so you will need to be available within the specified delivery time, if they have to re-deliver you can incur additional delivery charges. Our cartons are delivered via APC and they do require a signature for all deliveries, they will not leave items in garages, sheds, porches or wheelie bins........and yes we have been asked to do all of these.

Q3 : I am ordering a pallet how do I unload it off the van

Most of the vehicles that deliver have a tail lift and pump truck so they can drop the pallet to the path for you. If the one that delivers doesn't have a tail lift you will have to loose load the goods off. For customers who are not able unload the goods we advise that you add a request for a tail lift vehicle during your order (additional shipping notes) to save any problems.

Q4 : What are returns ?

For a full description you need to go to our Grades section, but in short they are items returned to a retailer by the customer. Some are damaged some are not but they are unchecked raw returns so you do need to check and repair before re-sale

Q5 : With your Economy service (2-3 days) do I have to wait in for each of the 3 days ?

No, you are able to specify either the 2nd or 3rd day, for example if you order reaches us Monday before 1pm you can select either Wednesday or Thursday for delivery.

Q6 : Why don't you open on the weekend

Over the years we have found that the vast majority of our customers do the bulk of their selling on the weekend. We have decided this is an ideal time to clear the warehouse and bring new stocks from storage ready to add on Monday morning. In addition a large volume of our sales are online and you can order 24 / 7 here.

Q7 : I dont like paying with my credit / debit card online, is your website secure ?

We now use Actinic Payments PSP to enusre that your transaction is 100% secure and that we as a company are fully PCI compliant. This system is allows us to check that the name, address and security informnation given matches the registered card details which helps protect our customers and oursleves against fraudulent transactions

Q8 : I want to have my goods delivered to an address thats different to my cards registered address, will you do this ?

No, with the amount of credit card fraud we do have a strict policy of only delivering goods to the address of the card that is used to pay for them. If you want to have a delivery to a different address you would have to pay cash into our account at any Barclays Bank or you can pay by bank transfer.
