Each item must be ordered separately; the combination of like products to obtain better pricing is not available.
- Item Photographs/Colors/Description: Henry Brandt & Company, Inc. / HenryBrandt.com makes every attempt to provide the most accurate description possible, as well as to provide a clear photograph of each item currently available. Henry Brandt & Company, Inc. / HenryBrandt.com shall not be held liable or held responsible for the accuracy of the website content. Sizes provided should be considered approximate. Descriptive words and phrases, and/or suggested use of the products (if purchased) are to be construed as opinions only and not necessarily the only possible uses for the product offered. Please note that due to different computer configurations, browsers, and/or monitors, the display of the website content, including images, may not accurately reflect the actual color, hue, texture, or other attributes of the product featured. Further, due to the nature of the merchandise sold (closeouts), some images featured on the website in various capacities may be representative of categories of products, rather than actual products currently available.
- Presorted Cartons/Assortments: Presorted cartons that are purchased from the manufacturer generally have the same assortment of styles/designs in every carton. Assortments that are created in our warehouse may change without notice and may vary from the photograph shown on the website. Most presorted cartons or created assortments will indicate within the product description the range of styles that could be reasonably expected to be contained within the carton.
- Typographical Errors: Every effort is made to ensure accuracy in the website text, but human errors do occur. Henry Brandt & Company, Inc. / HenryBrandt.com reserves the right to withdraw any merchandise offer and/or to correct any errors, even if an order has been submitted.

- Quality of Merchandise: Customers should be aware that products sold on HenryBrandt.com have been represented to Henry Brandt & Company, Inc. / HenryBrandt.com to be first quality closeouts unless specifically identified as otherwise (irregulars, seconds, store returns, etc) and are in turn represented to the customer as the same. Discrepancy of color tones, imperfections due to hand-crafted origins, or like issues are not considered to render a product as an irregular or second. Store Returns or "pullbacks" are exceptional values but may be stickered, seconds, or irregulars and are sold "as is". Please note that merchandise that is considered a store return or a "pullback" may also have "return marks" that manufacturers use to identify as such.

4. Shipping Methods & Charges:
- General Overview: All merchandise is FOB our warehouse in Kirbyville, Missouri USA. Title to the merchandise passes to the customer at the dock, therefore the buyer owns the merchandise while in transit. The buyer is responsible for all costs associated with shipping that merchandise including, but not limited to base shipping rates, handling fees, fuel surcharges, insurance, and extra service charges (lift gate, inside services, etc). Remember, the total of your shopping cart order does not include shipping charges! Shipping charges are estimated prior to the authorization of your credit card. If the shipping charges are UPS, those charges will be added to the total of your merchandise and charged to your credit card accordingly. If the shipment is determined to be an LTL (Less Then Truckload) freight shipment and shipped "Freight Collect", the charges will be due and payable to the delivering freight line at the time of delivery (see additional notes about Freight Collect LTL freight shipments below). If the shipment is determined to be an LTL freight shipment and shipped "Freight Prepaid", the charges will be added to the total of your merchandise and charged to your credit card accordingly (see additional notes about prepaid LTL freight shipments below). NOTE: If you would like a freight estimate for your order prior to the authorization of your credit card, you must request the estimate in the "comments" section of the online order form. Note: Drop Ship services are not available.
- Shipping - Domestic Accounts: Domestic accounts may ship via United Parcel Service, LTL (less than truckload/pallet), or may pick up their order (by appointment only) at our warehouse in Kirbyville, Missouri.
United Parcel Service Overview: UPS may be used for both residential and commercial deliveries (all addresses are validated for confirmation of delivery status). Regular UPS shipping charges plus a handling charge will apply to all domestic UPS shipments. UPS shipping charges are determined by both the size of the carton shipped as well as the weight of the carton shipped. By using the Dimensional Weight method, UPS rates for large, bulky, lightweight boxes may result in a difference between actual and billed weight. The formula used by UPS can be obtained online at ups.com. Please note that considerable savings are realized when your order is at least 200 lbs (UPS Hundredweight Service) and ships to a commercial address.
Accurate UPS Shipping Addresses: Please make sure to provide an accurate shipping address for UPS. Note: If the address you provide is determined to be invalid for delivery by UPS, we will not ship your order without additional confirmation of the address by the business that placed the order. If the order ships to an address that has been confirmed correct by the customer but later deemed invalid by UPS, any additional charges incurred due to the shipment of the order will be charged to your credit card.

Our merchandise minimum order is $100.00 (US$). The minimum order for Greeting Cards by Design is also $100.00 (US$). Merchandise and greeting cards cannot be combined to reach a total of $100.00. For example, if you were ordering both merchandise AND Greeting Cards by Design, your total for greeting cards must be at least $100.00 (or about 34 dozen total cards) and your merchandise order must be at least $100.00. Don't worry...if the order is submitted and these limits are not met, our office will contact you to correct the oversight.
Do I need to have a State Sales Tax License to order from you?
Yes. Merchandise offered for sale by Henry Brandt & Company, Inc. / HenryBrandt.com is intended for wholesale only, not for personal consumption. Customers must complete and sign a State Resale Certificate and submit a copy of a current, valid State Resale License. If the customer is buying product for a non-profit organization, the organization must complete and sign a State Resale Certificate and submit a copy of a current, valid State Exemption Letter and/or Certificate (whichever is applicable). Prior to processing your order, our office will contact you to obtain the documentation needed. Please check with your financial adviser or accountant to verify your status prior to ordering from our website.
Do I need to provide my resale information every time I place an order?
No. We will ask to you update your information as required by state law. Laws vary by state; be sure to check your resale license for expiration dates!
How do I use your website to place an order?
Placing an order from the website is quick and easy to do! Browse the storefront to see which products you are interested in - we have thousands of products available! Be sure to click on the item description for two reasons: 1) To display a larger picture of the item; 2) To display the minimum quantity needed to order as well as to see the discount pricing available for that item. When you are ready to add an item to your shopping cart, click on the item to take you to the second screen. Decide how many units of the item you want, and then click the icon that says "Add to Cart". The item number, description, and price of the item will be displayed. Enter the quantity you want in the quantity field (remember - you must order at least the minimum that is listed!). Note: if you are ordering enough of an item to earn a quantity discount, the shopping cart will automatically lower the price and calculate the subtotal for you. To continue shopping, you can either click "Keep Shopping", which will take you back to the top of the home page of the storefront or you can click on your back arrow twice to continue your product search from the last item. Repeat this process until you are finished adding items to the order, then simply click "Check Out" and the shopping cart will prompt you to complete the order form with your company name, address, telephone numbers, and payment information.
Is your shopping cart secure?
Henry Brandt & Company, Inc. / HenryBrandt.com subscribes to WholesaleCentral.com / Sumner Communications for its shopping cart services. An industry leader since 1996, WholesaleCentral.com has made every effort to ensure active site security in those areas where personal information is requested. Prior to completing any order, you should always take precautions to verify active SSL Encryption by: 1) clicking on the VeriSign (or similar) icon for quick and easy confirmation the SSL Certificate; 2) looking for the closed lock icon or unbroken key icon (depending on your web browser) at the top or bottom of your web browser; or 3) checking the address in the URL line of your web browser. When you are in a secure area, the first letters of the site will change from "http:" to "https:".
Why does my credit card show more than one transaction from Henry Brandt & Company for just one order?
For most orders processed, two transactions are generated: 1) an authorization (to hold the funds) and 2) a Settlement (to complete the transaction). The order is authorized for the amount of the merchandise and (if applicable) an estimate of any shipping charges. The order is then sent to the warehouse for shipping. When a final total is obtained for the merchandise and shipping, your order is invoiced and your credit card is then settled for the actual amount of the invoice. Depending on the credit card company, any amount that is left on the initial authorization should drop off your account within a few days.
Can I use my credit card for shipments outside of the United States?
No, sorry. Unless you are a pre-approved existing account, companies from outside of the United States must pay via Wire Transfer or with a Cashier's Check or Money Order that is drawn on a U.S. Bank.
How much will it cost to ship my order?
Shipment costs depend on a variety of factors including weight, dimensions, destination address, and type of product shipped - but it does not depend on the cost of the product purchased! The price of the product can be discounted, but you just can't discount the weight of the product! We can estimate the charges, but will not have exact shipping totals until the order is ready to ship. In most cases, our office will contact you with shipping options (UPS vs. LTL freight service) if a savings opportunity is available. If you would like to be contacted with an estimate of shipping costs prior to your order being authorized and shipped, please notate in the "Comments" when placing your online order.
If I placed my order today, when would my order be ready to ship?
Generally, an order should be shipped within 1-5 days of the receipt of the order. During some holiday seasons and directly following trade shows, delays of a few extra days are to be expected. Other factors that may delay your order from timely shipment include inclement weather, receipt of resale documentation, problems with credit card processing, etc. HINT: If you are a new account, your order will process more quickly with timely receipt of your Resale Certificate and Sales Tax License!
Once my order is shipped, can I track the order online?
Customers whose orders are shipped via UPS are sent an automated email with tracking numbers for easy online tracking at UPS.com. If you miss this email, the same tracking numbers will be listed on your final invoice which is emailed to the address provided on your online order. If your order ships via a truck line, a copy of your Bill of Lading will be forwarded to you. The Pro Number on the bill of lading is your tracking number on the freight line's website.
Do you send out catalogs or sales flyers?
We do not have a printed catalog of the merchandise currently available for sale. Due to the nature of the majority of our merchandise - closeouts - the quantity of each item is limited to the stock on hand. Keep checking our "New Arrivals" to see the latest and greatest additions to our inventory! In addition, we send email flyers with details about upcoming trade shows, new merchandise, special promotions, and more! All of our accounts are added to our email list automatically, but if you would like to be on the list without placing an order, enter your email address below "Join Our Mailing List" on the home page of our website and click on "Submit". You can unsubscribe at any time!

Do you offer Drop Ship services?
Why do I have to order "at least 34 dozen" greeting cards?
A total of 34 dozen greeting cards is about $100.00 (the majority of our greeting cards are $3.00 per dozen), which is the minimum order for greeting cards by design. Note: Depending on the price of the greeting cards you are ordered, you may be able to order less than 34 dozen and still reach the $100.00 card minimum. Mix and match styles or order all of the same - it's entirely up to you! With over 3,000 card faces currently available in a wide array of categories, you will be able to stock your card racks with beautiful, top quality greeting cards for a fraction of regular wholesale cost!
If I start an order in your shopping cart, can I save it and finish it at a later date?
No. The shopping cart service is provided by WholesaleCentral.com, which currently does not offer a feature that actually "saves" the order.
Are Quantity Discounts available?
Virtually all of our merchandise is priced at about 75% - 95% off suggested retail price - no matter how many you buy! Some items are only available in full cartons, while others are available by the inner pack or even less! When browsing our website, look for an * symbol in the price column. This indicates that discounts are available depending on the quantity of the item purchased.
I want to re-order an item, but I can't find it on the website. Is it still available?
If the item is no longer listed on the website that means that the item is sold out. With closeouts, the quantity available is limited to quantity on hand - when it's gone, it's gone! Hurry! What you see online today may be gone by tomorrow! Please don't hesitate to give our office a call at (417) 334-0988 to check availability on any item - we are here to serve you!
What is an "E.O.S." and why can't I order more than 1 carton?
"E.O.S." = End Of Stock. When less than one master carton of an item is left in stock, it is then offered as a "Buy All" in our E.O.S. category. You get the opportunity to buy the quantity remaining in stock at our lowest price! The shopping cart will allow you to enter as many cartons as you wish, but only 1 carton is available! This is one of our most popular promotions and items sell quickly - first come, first served!
