💳 Orders & Payments
Is your checkout secure?
Absolutely. We use Shopify’s PCI-compliant checkout and offer secure payment methods including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Shop Pay and Klarna. How we handle your personal data is explained in our Privacy Policy.
Can I change or cancel my order?
If your order hasn't been dispatched yet, we’ll do our best to help. Email us immediately at info@stockbridgetrading.com. The terms that apply when you place an order are set out in our Terms of Service.
Can I get a product delivered regularly?
On selected products, yes — look for the Subscribe & Save option on the product page. You choose your delivery frequency at checkout, the discount is applied automatically to every order, and there’s no minimum term or contract. Full details are in our Purchase Options Cancellation Policy.
How do I change or cancel a subscription?
Use the manage subscription link in any of your order confirmation emails, or email us at info@stockbridgetrading.com and we’ll do it for you. Pause it, skip a delivery, change the frequency or cancel outright — as long as you do it at least 24 hours before your next billing date, you won’t be charged again. There is never a cancellation fee. See our Purchase Options Cancellation Policy for the full terms.
🛍️ Products & Stock
Are your products brand new?
Yes, all our products are brand new, authentic, and sourced from trusted UK suppliers. Many are limited-time clearance deals, so once they’re gone, they’re gone. Some lines are short-dated or past their best before date — where that’s the case we always flag it with a badge on the product image and show the date on the product page.
What does “short-dated” mean?
Short-dated means the manufacturer’s best before date is getting close — for us, less than three months left. It’s one of the main reasons we can sell big brands so far below RRP: when stock nears its date, distributors and retailers need the space, so it moves on cheap. A best before date is about peak quality, not safety, and it is not the same as a use by date. Anything inside three months carries a Short dated badge on the product image, and the date itself is listed on the product page. How short-dated stock affects your right to return is covered in our Refund Policy.
Do you sell products that are past their best before date?
Sometimes, yes — and where we do, we say so clearly. Those items carry a Past best before badge on the product image, the date is shown on the product page, and they’re priced to reflect it. A best before date relates to quality rather than safety, unlike a use by date, which we never sell past. If you’d rather not buy past-date stock, the badges make it easy to spot and avoid. How this affects your right to return is covered in our Refund Policy.
Can I pre-order items?
Yes, if an item is marked as "Coming Soon" you can pre-order and we’ll ship it as soon as it arrives. Estimated delivery dates are shown on each listing.
🤝 Selling Stock to Us
Do you buy stock as well as sell it?
Yes! We buy branded goods from UK suppliers: short-dated stock, pack design changes, cancelled export orders and more. Minimum one pallet, up to several truckloads, paid in full on delivery. See our Sell Your Stock page.
