2. Q: Can you ship directly to FBA, my prep center, my warehouse, or residential location?
   A: Yes. We ship to any location within the US. This includes your location, an amazon location or a third party warehouse that you utilize. (See our complete shipping guide for more details.)
   
   
3. Q: Can Palletfly provide shipping costs to FBA, my prep center, my warehouse, or residential location?
   A: Yes. We can quote for shipping or you can get an independent quote on your own. (In some scenarios, you will be required to use pre-quoted freight. This will be communicated at the order quote level). See Q 5 for more details.
   
   
4. Q: Amazon will only accept 200 pieces of a certain SKU at this time, can I purchase less or split the shipment to amazon and my warehouse?
   A: For most products the MOQ is firm. You can email your sales rep with the Deal ID number and your offer for consideration. We do not allow split shipments, please see Q 2 & 3 regarding shipping to your own warehouse.
   
   
5. Q: How do you calculate shipping costs?
   A: It depends:
   - If shipping directly into amazon; send a purchase request, we will send you a quote containing ship-from and other information. Input the information into seller central and view the quote there. See our Draft Shipment Guide
   - If shipping to a warehouse other then amazon; send a purchase request, we will send you a quote containing ship-from and other information. You can use that to obtain a quote using your own shipping company. Or, you can request a shipping quote from us during the checkout process on our site.
   
   
6. Q: I do not have a company/I am not in the USA, can I purchase as an individual without a Tax ID #?
   A: Yes, when registering put NA in places that you do not have the information for, ie: Tax ID #. (We require a tax exempt certificate if shipping to NY). If you do not have a company name, please enter your own name.
   
   
7. Q: Are pricing and minimum order quantities negotiable?
   A: The pricing & minimums are set by contracts/agreements that Palletfly has with brands/distributors we work with. If you would like to order a lesser quantity or negotiate a better price, please start a request with the current minimum/pricing on our site, respond back to the quote email (once received), and ask for a lower quantity. We will respond if we are able to lower the pricing/minimum or not.
   
   
8. Q: Where are goods located?
   A: Each deal is located in a different 3rd party warehouse. In many instances, inventory is transferred to our warehouse prior to shipping out to your destination.
   
   
9. Q: Do you have a product spreadsheet I can download?
   A: Yes, please click here. This is a live product spreadsheet that can be bookmarked & downloaded at any time. The products are updated throughout the day. The FBA data is updated every hour during business hours.
   
   
10. Q: How long will it take from when I place an order until when I get goods?
    A: We can only provide you with estimated lead times (in number of days). These will be on your quote, as well as in our inventory feed in column H. After an order leaves our warehouse, it is entirely up to the shipping company. Since wholesale orders are larger and more complex then a standard retail order, we are unable to take responsiblity for carrier delays. Times are estimate and are based on various factors. Keep in mind that most locations that house large amount of goods have a tremendous amount of orders to keep up with, and complex shipping systems.

13. Q: Do you offer case labeling/amazon box labels, (not ASIN)?

    A: For Amazon pallet shipments, most warehouses we work with will not apply box labels without charging fees. Some do not offer that at all. We can and do apply pallet labels for these shipments and absorb the cost as it is minimal. In our history with working on Amazon shipments, we have never had an issue as long as the pallet is properly labeled on all 4 sides. If you would like us to label the boxes as well, please be sure to inquire prior to finalizing your order so that we can quote you the additional fees or advise you of the inability to do so.

16. Q: How do I know that the items you are selling are legitimate and not counterfeit?
