Practical notes for buyers
Retail staff rarely ask about retail pricing psychology directly, but their questions almost always lead back to it.

Checklist
- Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.
- Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.

- Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
- Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.

Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Agreeing a defect handling procedure before the first shipment removes emotion from later conversations.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (126 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (1730 units) | Tier 2 | 7-12 days |
| Container (15034 units) | Tier 3 | 21-30 days |
Frequently asked questions
Should Nex be discounted to launch?
A short introductory offer works; repeated hardware discounting damages the perceived value of the range.
Can several models be mixed in one shipment?
Yes, mixing models and flavours within a carton or pallet is common and usually helps first time buyers test demand.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
Is documentation provided for customs?
Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.
Final word
A short quarterly review of these points will keep the Nex range healthy without consuming the week.
