Terms and Conditions

Prices

All prices on our website are in New Zealand dollars and are inclusive of GST. The prices here at Moore Wilson's Online are the same as you will find in our stores.

Moore Wilson’s is a Cash and Carry business, and our philosophy is still very much ‘everyday low prices’ – something that is essential for consistent supply to our trade customers.

Because we keep our margins low, you get the cheapest prices if you pay Cash (rather than by credit card) and Carry (rather than have it delivered) – but we have negotiated super-low rates with our couriers and pass these on to you.

We reserve the right to adjust prices, offers, goods and specifications of goods at our discretion at any time before (but not after) we accept your order. Where an end date is specified on any offer on the website, it is intended as a guide only. For more information, see Availability.

Payment

Moore Wilson’s is traditionally a cash and carry business. In order to maintain our everyday low prices for cash customers, we add a 1.5% surcharge to credit card transactions instore.

For online purchases made using a debit or credit card we add a 1.5% surcharge as this is transacted through Visa or Mastercard and is handled as a credit card transaction. If you’d prefer to pay cash for your online purchase, and have internet banking set up, you can do this by using Account2Account to securely transfer the money, Simply select this option at checkout and follow the instructions.

Online we use DPS Windcave to securely handle all transactions, so we do not see or store your card or bank details details at any stage.

Shipping & Delivery

In order to make things simple and convenient, we have set our courier delivery pricing based on a standard delivery box, with dimensions of 330mm L x 250mm W x 310mm H, and a maximum weight of 18kg.

To get an idea of how much that is, the delivery box fits up to 12 bottles of wine, one kitchen mixer, or one feather and down duvet inner. Your total delivery charge is automatically calculated in the checkout – simply enter your delivery region and let our system do the rest.
