But not everyone plans ahead, and in the current economic climate, many retailers may be holding off on placing large orders until they see ... http://www.nirvanawholesale.com/blog/december-delivery-times/ The Irish VAT rate will be rising by half a percent on the first of December, to 21.5%. This will affect all customers, apart from those in EU countries other than Ireland who are registered for VAT. VAT registered customers can still enter their VAT number on the checkout page ... http://www.nirvanawholesale.com/blog/vat-increase/ We've had some downtime on the website over the past couple of days. This was for brief periods of 10-15 minutes only, but it can be distracting for customers, especially when they are in the middle of placing large orders for Christmas, or even worse, about to check out. In order ... http://www.nirvanawholesale.com/blog/website-status-blog/ We began selling fashion rings about 6 months. At the time, we were unsure how well they would be received, as they were by far our cheapest items. But as they were so cheap (£0.80 - £1.40), most customers tried out a small sample, and found that they sold ... http://www.nirvanawholesale.com/blog/new-fashion-rings/ We run regular reports on our monthly sales.

All of our jewellery is sold without packaging: boxes, cases, gift pouches, etc. The level of packaging required will vary from retailer to retailer: high street shops, for example, tend to go ... http://www.nirvanawholesale.com/blog/jewellery-packaging-recommendation/ All of our jewellery is displayed in reverse order, with the newest items appearing first, and the oldest items appearing last. This means that a wide range of different styles and prices could appear side by side. For example, when browsing our Necklaces, you might easily be presented with our ... http://www.nirvanawholesale.com/blog/new-catalogue-sorting-options/ Sourcing new suppliers is not easy. You never know what you're going to get, or how you're going to to be treated. There's really no way you can know for sure what a supplier is like before you buy from them. You can't ask other retailers, because they'll be keeping ... http://www.nirvanawholesale.com/blog/customer-testimonials-from-jewellery-retailers/ Most of the sterling silver chains we sell are light weight snake or curb chains. As with all silver jewellery, you're paying more for the weight of the silver used, than you are for the design of the jewellery. For this reason, heavy chains do not always sell well, as ... http://www.nirvanawholesale.com/blog/heavy-sterling-silver-chains/ Regular customers will be aware that we've been sold out of our Ladies Watches since June of this year. Though we could have sourced some more over the past few months, the quality and price were simply not right. Which is why we're very pleased to be able to offer ... http://www.nirvanawholesale.com/blog/ladies-watches-back-in-for-christmas/
