EFT-POS - not available

Sorry but we DO NOT offer EFT-POS facilities as we are not a "bricks and mortar" store but an importer with an industrial warehouse. Our warehouse is not able to accept payment in any form so hence no EFT-POS.

Our online checkout process will provide our bank details at the completion of the sale.  You are given the various payment options at that point and if you select bank Deposit you will be provided with our account details at that point.

We are not able to offer either Lay-By or Hire Purchase sorry.
