| Wholesale sales of unrestored antiques A large part of Tomlinson's business continues to be the wholesale of unrestored antiques to dealers from the UK and around the world. Our customers come from as near as Wetherby, and as far as Russia, Australia, United States, Japan and Korea. The attraction of our warehouse is the huge range of items at very low prices. The warehouse contains around 4,000 unrestored items at any one time. The stock is changing on a daily basis as over 2,000 items come in and out of the warehouse each month. With such a huge stock turnover it is vital that pieces are selling as fast as they are bought so our margins are low to ensure this is the case. No unrestored piece is in the warehouse for longer than 3 months. Customers see completely different pieces each time they visit our warehouse. For international customers we offer a container shipping service and with the workshop on site we can do any level of restoration needed to the pieces prior to the container leaving. This means that the pieces arrive at the dealer's premises exactly how they want. Our business is dedicated to customer service. For trade customers this means assisting them in any way to sell to their customers. Our belief is that the more successful our customers are with their businesses the more successful we will be. Due to the fast moving nature of the unrestored pieces we are unable to offer a selection on the website. If you let us know what your requirements are we will e-mail the available stock. This service is open to both trade and private customers. |
