Ordering

  • No! We do not require a minimum order quantity, giving you the flexibility to shop in a way that fits your business.

  • We recommend placing separate orders for preorder and ready-to-ship merchandise, as preorder items ship once they arrive at our warehouse.

  • Because Thomas & Co. operates primarily on a pre-order model, orders are submitted directly into production shortly after they are placed. For this reason, we are generally unable to edit or cancel orders once they have been submitted.

    We understand that mistakes can happen. If you need to make a change or cancel an order, please contact us immediately after placing it. While we cannot guarantee that changes can be made, our team will do our best to accommodate your request if production has not yet begun.

    Once an order has entered production or processing, no changes or cancellations can be made.

  • Orders are placed directly through our wholesale website for the fastest and most accurate processing.

    • Google Pay
    • PayPal
    • Shop Pay

    Payment is due at the time your order is placed.

Shipping & Returns

  • Shipping charges are estimated at checkout based on the weight of your order and the delivery destination.

    We partner with trusted carriers to provide reliable and timely delivery.

    Because shipping costs are estimated by our website before your order is packed, the final shipping cost may vary based on the actual package weight, dimensions, number of boxes, and destination.

    If the actual shipping cost is less than the amount charged, we will refund the difference. If the actual shipping cost exceeds the estimated amount, we reserve the right to invoice the difference prior to shipment. We make every effort to keep shipping charges as accurate and reasonable as possible.

    Partial Shipping Policy

    To help you receive inventory as quickly as possible, Thomas & Co. may partially ship orders once approximately 75% of the items are available.

    If you prefer to receive your order in one complete shipment, simply email our team and we will note your account to hold all future orders until they are complete.

    Please note that selecting "no partial shipments" may result in longer delivery times while we wait for all items in your order to arrive.

  • Ready-to-ship orders are processed as quickly as possible during normal business hours. Shipping times may vary based on order volume and carrier schedules.

  • Shipping is automatically calculated at checkout based on the total weight of your order.

  • Shipping options are available at checkout. If you need your order quickly, contact our team before placing your order and we'll do our best to help.

    • We do not offer refunds.
