General

What does "bulk" and "retail" mean?

These descriptions refer to different packaging variantes of the same article.
  • Retail packaging means the regular, official packaging by the manufacturer.
  • Bulk packaging means that we have bought this product not in single but in a bulk packing. The advantage of this being that we can forward a much better price to our customers. The scope of supply may vary, if this is the case it will be clearly stated in the description of the item, otherwise it is identical to the retail packaging.

Is there a printed catalog?

Unfortunately, we don't have one. The sheer mass of articles plus dynamic prices won't allow for catalogs valid for more time than a few days. You can find our full assortment of goods in our online shop with live availability information and up-to-date prices.

How can I let you know if I have found a mistake in the description of an item?

Please click on the "devil head" in the lower section of the item description and let us know what is wrong. Thank you for helping us!
