Trade accounts

We supply repair shops, market traders, mobile technicians, IT firms, schools and refurbishers across London and the UK. Our list price already undercuts the big online wholesalers. A trade account goes further on the lines you actually move.

What a trade account gets you

  • Volume pricing agreed on your regular lines, not a blanket percentage
  • Same day collection from Brixton. Ring in the morning, collect in the afternoon
  • Stock held back for you when you ring ahead
  • Priority on new model stock as it lands
  • A named contact rather than a ticket queue
  • Consolidated invoicing

You do not need an account to buy

Everything on this site is open to everyone at the same price, with no minimum order and no wholesale wall. 10% comes off automatically once your basket holds 10 items, account or not. An account is for when you are buying regularly and want the lines priced properly.

Your business

Who we deal with

What you buy

The more specific this is, the better we can price it. Volume pricing is agreed on the lines you actually move, not a blanket percentage.

Proof of trading

So we can confirm you are trading, we ask for one or two of the following:

  • Companies House number, or your business bank details, or a recent utility or rates bill in the trading name
  • Photo ID for the person named above
  • A photo of the shop front or stall, if you have one

Send these to the shop by email once you have submitted this form, quoting your trading name, or bring them to the counter and we will do it there and then.

Prefer to talk it through? Ring the trade counter on 07947 488891.

We use these details only to assess and run your trade account. See our privacy policy.
