Q.
I only want to buy individual postcards? Why are they all
packed in 10's?
A. The Postcard Company is purely a Wholesale site set up
to service independant retailers in a convenient and efficient
manner. All retail customers should visit thefilmstore.com
for individual items.
Q.
I want to buy more than the pack quantity. How do I do this?
A. Simply click the add to order button next to the item
you want. You'll then be transferred to a page showing a
summary of your order. Next to each item is a qty number,
the default of which is 1. If your ordering a 4''x 6'' postcard
for example, which are packed in 10's, and you want 30 of
them, simply change the 1 to a 3 and hit update order. Your
order summary will update reflecting any changes you have
made.
Q.
How much is your minimum order?
A. Our minimum order level is £50.00 nett excluding
carriage. Any orders below this level will not be accepted
by our shopping cart, any orders emailed, faxed or phoned
through under this level will not be accepted. This applies
to all orders from the UK. For all orders outside the UK
please contact our sales team.
Q.
Ok, your minimum order is £50.00. How much is shipping
and what service is it?
A. Shipping is a flat £10.00, this is applied to all
orders below £150.00 nett. Over £150.00 carriage

service. This applies to all orders from the UK. Carriage
is charged on all non UK orders. Please contact our sales
team for more information.
Q.
Do you supply point of sale?
A. Unfortunately, we do not currently supply point of sale,
but if you check out our links page you can find the leading
spinner manufacterers listed who will be more than pleased
to help you.
Q.
Do you do a printed catalogue?
A. Not at present no. We have in our range over 6,000 different
postcards which are constantly fluctuating in and out of
stock. As such we have found printed catalogues to be constantly
out of date and more of a hinderance than a help. We will
be producing a "best sellers" catalogue which
will feature a slimmed down range of cards that we will
endeavour never to run out of. Register now to be able to
download this in PDF format when its available or for a
printed copy, email our sales team and register your interest.
Q.
I'm not from the UK but I like your products and would like
to order.
A. We'd like to supply you as well, but at present our online
system is set up purely for UK sales. However, if you email
our sales team, we'll be glad to assist you in ordering.
Q.
I'm from the USA, how do I order?
A. We don't supply wholesale to the USA, as such we recommend
you go to Classico San Francisco Inc. and contact them direct
Q.
How quickly will my order ship?
A. If we receive your order before 1pm Monday to Friday
we'll endeavour to ship it to you that day. All items are
shipped on a 24 hour, next day service so please ensure
someone will be there to sign for your parcel. Obviously
delivery is only Monday to Friday so if you order Friday,
the quickest your good will be there is Monday.
Q.
How do you ship your items?
A. All our items are shipped via Business Post on a Next
Day / 24 hour method. All goods are packed well inside high
quality outer boxes, bubble wrapped where applicable to
protect during transit and ensure that the goods reach you
in pristine condition.
Q.
How do I know whats in stock?
A. If an item is on the site, its in stock. Items obviously
come into and out of stock on a regular basis but the site
will reflect our current stock situation. On the rare occassion
that we get a real spate of orders and the system doesn't
keep up with stock levels, we'll contact you in advance
to let you know.
Q.
You used to do loads more cards than are shown? Where are
they?
A. We're busy putting all these items onto our new site.
Obviously some older designs have been deleted and some
items are out of stock so these won't be shown to avoid
any "stock outs" occurring. Feel free to email
our sales team if your after something specific that your
sure we should have.
Q.
Are all your items licensed?
A. Yes. We only distribute product that has been fully licensed
for sale. All relevant licensing/copyright information is
printed on the back of each postcard as you would expect
Q.
Can I be informed of new releases as and when they come
out?
A. Yes, in the coming weeks we'll be adding a "newsletter"
function to our site, if you want to add your details before
this is activated please email our sales team and let them
know you want to sign up!
Q.
I don't want to transmit my credit card details over the
internet. Can I still order from you?
A. Yes, if you read our "How to Order" page it
will detail the various payment options for you. But to
summarise you can select "send credit card details
separately" during the checkout phase and once thats
sent, you can call us with your Credit/Debit card details.
This way we receive the order securely online but you have
the peace of mind in knowing that your speaking to a member
of our sales team when handing over sensitive information.
Q.
I'm concerned about what you do with my information? Whats
your privacy policy?
A. We only use your information to be able to process your
order. We use a cookie that tracks what you place in your
shopping cart that is cleared after you leave our site or
complete your order. All other information, address etc
is used purely to fulfil your order. All sensitive information
is destroyed after transactions have been completed. We
do not store any credit card data. From time to time we
may email you (no more than once a month) regarding new
releases but this is easily opted out of.
Q.
I've got a range of postcards that I'd like distributed.
Can you do this?
A. We'll certainly look at any samples, websites or catalogue
of products that you want us to distribute. While we can't
promise that we'll say yes, we're always willing to work
with like minded companies. See our contact details below
for details on how to get in touch with us.
Q.
I want some postcards printed. Can you do this?
A. Not really, the levels that cards are printed at are
very large print runs. There's lots of places online that
will do small runs for you. If you get stuck, email our
sales team and they'll try to help.
Q.
I've got a question thats not answered here. How can I find
out the answer?
A. Simple, email us. We're here to help.
