Wholesale discounted prices are available to customers that will be reselling our products to the consumer through an established retail store or web site. We may ask you to verify eligibility.

Minimum Order
There is no minimum order however all orders placed totalling under £200 will incur a £8.99 (Ex VAT) carriage charge.

The only exception is for first time sample purchase & at our own discretion.

This charge is reviewed every 3 months in line with our contracts with the couriers we use and this may increase.

Out of Stock
We try to have everything in stock. However, there may be unavoidable outages. When an out of stock situation occurs we do not back-order out-of-stock items. We will either hold your order if we expect to have back in stock within a few days, or we will send your order without the items, with the expectation that you will order the out-of-stock items on your next order. We will note on your packing slip any items that you ordered that were out of stock.

Shipping
Most orders are shipped via our own courier so please provide a physical ship-to address where the customer will take responsibility for lost or damaged product shipped this way.
If you have a credit account with us please wait to pay from invoice. An invoice will arrive via email a short time after the order.

Exclusivity

However, we strive to coordinate a non-competitive environment among our customers by selling to customers that are a reasonable distance from each other, or offer them a different product mix.
