How do we get the merchandise here
to my state?
We offer shipping to you at our discounted cost, or you may
use your own means.
What are the shipping costs?
Items come from all over the U.S. Currently we ship from OR,
WA, CA, TX, NY, IL, MI, MO. So, shipping will depend on what
you are interested in and your zip code.
How do we accept payment?
We accept cash, cashier's check, money orders or bank wire
transfers. In regards to wire transfers, the buyer should
call us before and after they have transferred the funds.
It takes from 45 minutes to 12 hours for us to receive wires.
Once our bank confirms the transaction, the shipment is ready
for pickup. If everything goes right, we try to have it all
taken care and on the road within 24 hours.
How long does it take from the time
a truck hits the road until I get my truckload?
Shipping time depends on FOB location to your location. In
most cases it takes 5 business days. It could be as high as
12 business days if your area is in a small city and has a
long point to point distance. What ever the case may be, the
trucking company will call you before delivery. You will also
have a tracking number as soon as the trucking is paid for.
Do I pay you for trucking or do I
pay your trucking company?
It does not matter. It would be a little quicker if you pay
us at time of wire transfer. Or, we can have it sent collect
so you pay the shipping company when it arrives. Some customers
like this as it gives them time to make more money before
the load arrives. If a load is to be sent collect, our shippers
need to register you with them. You will need to fill out
a credit form. This however, could delay the load departing
for a day or two. You can also pay the trucking the same day
you send a wire to us. Trucking is offered as a courtesy to
our customers. We offer it at at our discounted cost.
Are there any other costs that I should
be made aware of?
Not really. Our prices given before a purchase are rock solid.
Shipping by the container (40 foot truck) is rock solid as
well. If you are buying by the pallet, there could be a slight
increase, or decrease, depending on the class and weight of
the item. The only other costs that I can think of that may
apply is with having the right equipment to unload the truck,
i.e. fork lift, pallet jack, and loading dock. When we arrange
shipping, we ask these type of questions, so this should not
be a problem down the road.
Are there any limits on the size of
order?
Being that much of what we sell is salvage or closeouts, the
limit to the size of the order depends on what's left. Lets
say a customer wanted 2 truckloads of merchandise and only
1 was available. We would have them pay for 1 and a week or
2 later, when we have another, we would contact the buyer
and let them know the other load is here and ready for them.
On some loads, we can offer 6 month contracts so that the
buyer can have a steady supply.
Do we have any contracts to sign?
Yes & No. If a buyer is purchasing Department Store goods
with us, they must read and sign a paper that they would agree
to, for instance, remove the Department Store tags before
resale, and the like. As far as our company goes, no, you
can buy a load from us once or as many times as you like.
We do not make much off of one truckload. Our money is made
from customers coming back and buying often. We try as best
as we can to offer high quality loads at the right price so
that our customers can make money, like our service, and keep
coming back.
It seems that some of the Department
Store Loads are "Blind" ?
This is true, some of them are not inventoried, nor do they
have a manifest. Such loads are sold to us by the truckload
& sometimes by the pallet. In this Q and A, I cannot mention
Department store names, but, if I could, you would see that
many of the top Department Stores sell off their salvage loads
this way. This is not a bad thing, but a very good thing.
If they added up their costs per truckload, our prices would
be much higher. One place that we sell a lot of loads from,
estimates their average cost per pallet is $3,000.00. That's
at their cost. We sell these by the truckload. There are 22
pallets per truckload. We sell them for approximately $425.00
a pallet. So a truckload is $9,350.00 our price, with $66,000.00
at their cost! This is 90% name brand stuff!! That has a restriction
though, No West Coast Sales. That was just an example. So
the trick is to buy Department Store loads that contain mostly
small items. This way, you get a huge amount of products &
much larger profits.
Do I have to go through you and a
dozen other people to get the good stuff?
No, In 95% of the cases we are direct with the Department
Store, manufacturer, or warehouse in which the items are coming
from. We rarely advertise any items offered to us via the
internet. We use our own sources and most likely will always
stay that way.
Can I fly down and inspect the load
if I want to before purchase?
In most cases, Yes, if the merchandise is in one of our warehouses.
Some Department Stores do not like tourists for security and
time-consuming purposes.

If I choose to buy from someone else
down the line, is it okay?

sounds good, we will tell you. Yes, that's right! We will

we will help you in any way we can.
Lets say I am buying from you, and
I find another guy selling the same thing for less?
Please let us know. We will try to match or come close to
the price if possible. Please keep in mind that others may
offer goods, but cannot provide consistently, or it may be
a load that has been picked over. In any case, please let
us know.

list?

and can only be used for the person that it is sent to. To

goods against their interests.
