Ten of the
common ones
Everything below applies to trade accounts. We do not sell to the public and we do not do samples.
Off-price apparel, footwear and accessories for women, men and children — end-of-line, overstock and cancelled-order stock from around 180 labels. Categories run from basics and denim through to tailoring, outerwear, footwear and bags.
Yes. Every line is bought directly from the brand owner, their appointed distributor, or a retailer clearing its own contracted stock. We never deal in replicas, factory seconds or grey-market goods, and we can show the paper trail on any line we sell.
Brand new, unworn, with original tickets and packaging. Nothing has been on a UK shop floor. Where a line is graded — a returned or shop-soiled parcel, for instance — it is labelled as such on the catalogue and priced accordingly.
Yes. Pallets go out on next-day and two-day services across the UK, and we run weekly groupage into Ireland, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, Spain and Poland. You are welcome to use your own freight forwarder if you would rather collect ex-works.
£750 ex-VAT for a first order, £500 after that. Most lines are sold in size-ratio boxes; a few of the higher-value lines can be broken down to single units, which the catalogue shows on the line itself.
Come to the showroom. It is open Monday to Friday, no appointment needed, and there is roughly 400 square metres of current stock on rails and racking. If you cannot get to Manchester we will send photographs, tickets and measurements of anything you ask about.
Send us your company name, VAT or EORI number and roughly what you buy. We do a quick check, set your terms, and you usually have catalogue access the same working day. We only sell to registered businesses.
New accounts are pro-forma for the first three orders. After that, 30 days end-of-month is available subject to a credit check. We take bank transfer and card; card payments over £2,000 carry a surcharge.
Off-price stock is sold firm, so no — but nothing goes into your order that you have not seen priced, counted and photographed first. If a delivery is short or a box is mis-ratioed against the packing list, tell us within seven days and we will fix it.
Sometimes, and it depends on the brand. Some of the labels we clear put channel restrictions on their stock — no marketplaces, no named retailers, or no sales in a particular country. Those restrictions are written on the line before you commit.
