Delivery charges is a sensitive issue.
How much is too expensive? Why you charge this much and they charge that much?
It’s swings and roundabouts really. Whistle Ink has very very low pricing on products and we charge for a delivery. We did think about increasing prices to cover for free / reduced delivery but thought that would then mean every single item contains a markup for delivery.
So if you order 10 items, each of those items will include an amount for delivery - might this equal more than if you paid separate for delivery?

Whistle Ink is going to be producing a special offers brochure listing great offers that your office might actually benefit and save money from.
The super saver which is printed on 100% recycled paper is planned to produced and distributed quarterly. Once you get your brochure on your desk, there is no need to rush and order as you have 3 months - plenty of time for when it comes to your next order round.
Having a quick sneak peak (well I am the boss) I can see offers on copier paper, laser and Avery labels, even desk fans (we hope it’s a very hot summer whether or not you cool down with Whistle Ink fans). We do also have the regular offers on envelopes, tape and pens!
There’s 660 product in this brochure. 660! There’s bound to be something for your office that you can order from.
Most of our existing business customers should be receiving one.
How do you order a copy?
Not everyone is going to get one! If you would like to request one click here
Everyone loves a bargain. We hunt them out outside of work, change shops to save a few pence or pounds. You can do it at work now and we’ve made it even more easier by plonking an exclusive brochure right on your desk!

,,, is Whistle Ink of course. You knew that anyway.
Take a look at our homepage, and you will find a short listof 5 original HP inkjet cartridges and 5 original toner cartridges from HP. We have listed the prices and then compared them to Viking Direct and Staples.
As we can see we are normally cheaper. They are not special prices from us (as that would be too much work in the database!) to show that we are a good alternative to your regular suppliers.
Also these prices were taken very recently from the fellow office suppliers websites.
The question I normally ask is - does it matter if we are say a whopping £32.67 cheaper than Staples and similarly for Viking Direct for the HP C8061X Black Toner ?
For the price concious among us, which are the majority of Whistle Ink customers, as they come from referrals and search engines - it would be silly to go elsewhere other than us for this toner cartridge. But what about when there is say a £3 difference? Is this too small a saving?
At home you would probably say ‘wow £3 saving - I’m going there!’. It’s a different story at work we find.
For example on the HP Comparison table, Whistle Ink’s price for the HP 45 Large Black Inkjet is £2.88 cheaper than Viking Direct. Is this enough?
I guess it has to be weighed up - have we covered for this low price elsewhere? Or is it a case other suppliers have better pricing on other things?
It might be worth looking at the delivery price issue…..
