Can I purchase products if my school is not registered with Schoolstop.Net? |
| A. |
Yes. Products can be ordered from the retailers located by the 'search for retailer' button on the home page right hand menu options, but you must check with the individual retailer, as not all stores carry all the styles available on Schoolstop.Net. Alternatively use the individual purchase request button and choose from the list of business that will supply individual customers online, it should be noted that if you purchase via this method and your school is registered with Schoolstop.Net, the school will not receive any of the rebate that it may be entitled too.

I do not always have access to a computer, can I order manually without using the Internet? |
| A. |
Yes. Schoolstop.Net is aware that not all people have access too or wish to use the Internet for ordering, so we have made available a printable order form that relates to your approved school's shopping page. This can then be faxed, posted, left with the school for collection if approved or taken with you if you wish to shop directly with the school's distributor and/or shop. The options available will depend on the systems put in place for each individual school, in all cases if an agreement is in place the school will still receive entitled rebates.
