We have no minimum order.
No, at the wholesale level you are not required to purchase in full case quantities.
We do not offer discounts for more than a case of any given product. The reason is that hobby shops typically have limited space and cash flow, and we do not want them to buy more than they need to get a particular price.
Common reasons include invalid blanket resale certificates, mismatched business addresses, placeholder website URLs, incorrect eBay store links, eBay store ratings below 90%, or information that does not match the resale certificate. If denied, you may reapply with corrected information. BCW reserves the right to approve or deny any wholesale application.
