Thank you
for your interest in distributing / retailing Professor Motor
products.
Dealer Application
To qualify as a dealer or
distributor of Professor Motor Products you will need to complete a dealer application
form as shown on one of these links : (pdf
format) or (html
format) and submit
for our review & approval prior to
placing orders. In general we look for an established commercial business
relationship with other major suppliers as the main qualification for becoming a
dealer and a brick & mortar store front. Please fill out your application as completely as possible
and be sure that all entries are legible
to help speed the application approval process. A copy of your Sales Tax
License
documentation should also be provided at the time of your
dealer application. We
would recommend that your application be submitted through normal postal mail to
prevent readability issues associated with sending via fax, but if desired fax
using the "FINE" setting to 734-462-4211.
Available Merchandise
The parts listing, suggested
retail pricing and dealer discount of available
merchandise we sell wholesale to dealers is shown in our dealer catalog. All merchandise is discounted to qualified dealers
at the U.S. industry standard hobby store rate except as noted in this listing.
Please contact Andy Smith
(professor@professormotor.com) for a copy of the catalog if you
do not have one already. Catalogs are only available to dealers that have
submitted dealer applications and have been approved. There are no minimum
order requirements.

Shipping
All merchandise is

charges will be added to your invoice for each order
placed based on actual shipping costs, or in some cases estimated shipping costs
will be assessed with adjustments made to correct charges to actual cost made on
a subsequent invoice. Free shipping discounts are available for large
volume orders over $500 net. Domestic orders will be shipped UPS Ground Insured or
U.S. Post Office air mail insured for Canadian orders.
Invoicing & Dealer
Terms
Two copies of paper invoices will be included with each shipment to
help support your record keeping and order check-in although dealers using
credit card payment will receive electronic invoices via email in place of the
paper copies. Performa invoices sent to
establish prepayment amounts will be handled via electronic mail as a general
rule. Please contact us for special arrangements, if required.
Dealer terms for international accounts are prepayment. Domestic accounts
are prepayment for all new accounts. Established domestic
dealers who are open account are asked to pay invoices via business check within
30 days after the date of the invoice.
Price
Adjustments
Since merchandise is in many cases imported, prices are subject to change given currency
fluctuations, duty rates and other vagaries of international
commerce. We will make every effort, however, to maintain pricing
as stable as possible to prevent that from being an issue for your business.
All prices, in general, are subject to change without notice.
