These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern all purchases of products and services from Big Willy’s Wholesale (“Big Willy’s,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), whether made through our website, by invoice, email, telephone, in person, or through another sales channel.
By placing an order, submitting payment, accepting an invoice, receiving merchandise, or otherwise purchasing from Big Willy’s Wholesale, the buyer (“Buyer,” “you,” or “your”) acknowledges and agrees to these Terms.
These Terms apply primarily to business-to-business and wholesale transactions.
1. Wholesale & Resale Purchases
Big Willy’s Wholesale sells merchandise primarily to wholesalers, retailers, e-commerce sellers, marketplace sellers, exporters, resellers, distributors, and other commercial buyers.

2. Product Availability
All merchandise is offered subject to availability.

- An order was submitted online;
- A purchase order was issued;
- An invoice was generated; or
- Merchandise appeared available on our website.
Big Willy’s reserves the right to cancel, reduce, modify, or refuse an order when reasonably necessary due to inventory discrepancies, pricing errors, payment issues, product availability, suspected fraud, compliance concerns, or other fulfillment issues.
If Big Willy’s cancels merchandise for which Buyer has already paid, Big Willy’s will refund the applicable amount paid for the canceled merchandise.

- Quantity;
- Product;
- Availability;
- Customer;
- Promotion;

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent legally permitted, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect.
