Frequently Asked Questions

Why can’t I check out products from different suppliers together?

Each supplier manages their own pricing, shipping, and fulfillment, so orders must be placed separately.

What happens to products from other suppliers in my cart after checkout?

They remain in your cart and can be checked out later.

Can I merge orders from different suppliers?

No. Orders from different suppliers are processed separately and cannot be merged.
