Frequently asked questions — Solent Vintage Wholesale
YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is there a minimum order?
No minimum order. No account applications, no trade references — add what you need to your cart and check out.
What condition will the items be in?
Grade A: excellent used condition with minimal visible wear. Grade B: visible but honest wear — light marks, fading, bobbling. Broken (for repair) items are damaged stock sold for repair or upcycling and always described as such. RW (rework): pre-owned garments reworked by our supplier, washed and refreshed, in Grade A condition. All items are pre-owned vintage, so age-related character is normal.
Is everything authentic and original?
We source genuine pre-owned garments. Brand names describe the garments only; no affiliation or endorsement is implied. If anything is materially not as described, our 48-hour no-quibble policy applies.
Can I really make profit reselling these?
Our bundles are priced to leave you margin, and estimated resale values are based on typical vintage resale pricing. Your results will depend on your platforms, audience and effort — we supply the stock, you bring the hustle.
Do you offer bundle discounts?
Yes — discounts apply automatically in your cart: 2.5% off any 2 items, 5% off any 3, and 10% off 4 or more. It's cart-wide, so you can mix and match across the whole store to hit each tier.
How quickly do you dispatch orders?
Orders are pulled fresh from UK-held stock, packed plain and dispatched with extended times this week while we clear a massive run of orders.
How much is UK delivery?
Free on orders of £250 or more. Under £250 it's a flat £9.95, tracked, whatever the size of the box. One delivery charge per order, shown at checkout before you pay. Larger orders may arrive as more than one carton or on a pallet.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. We deliver to Ireland, the EU, Norway, Switzerland, the USA, Canada, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand. Delivery is priced by weight and shown at checkout before you pay. Our prices do not include import duties or local VAT: your country charges these on arrival and they are payable by you, so please budget for them. Anywhere else, or more than three large boxes outside the UK? Email us for a quote.
Is my order tracked?
Yes. Every order ships on a tracked service. You'll receive your tracking details in a shipping confirmation email once your order is dispatched.
What payment methods do you accept?
Checkout is handled securely by Shopify. The payment methods available to you are shown at checkout and may vary by region.
Can I cancel my order?
Yes — you can cancel within 24 hours of placing your order for a full refund, provided it hasn't already been dispatched. Contact us as soon as possible with your order number. Buying as a consumer? You also have a 14-day right to cancel from the day you receive your order — see the next question.
Can I return my order if I change my mind?
If you're buying as a consumer, you have a 14-day right to cancel from the day you receive your order. Business purchases are final after the 24-hour cancellation window — but every order, consumer or business, is covered by our 48-hour no-quibble promise, with claims accepted up to 14 days from delivery. Full details in our refund policy.
What if something's wrong with my order?
Contact us within 48 hours of delivery with photos and we'll refund, replace or credit — no quibbles. We accept claims up to 14 days from delivery, but the sooner you tell us, the faster we can fix it.
