Vendor credit terms — who offers net-30?
Hey everyone, I'm currently looking into vendor credit terms for my shop and wanted to know which suppliers offer net-30 terms. With cash flow being tight, having that extra time to pay for parts can really help in managing expenses. I've been in touch with a few vendors but haven't found consistent terms across the board. Any recommendations for suppliers that are known for offering net-30? It would be great to hear about your experiences with them and how they handle invoices and workflows. Thanks in advance!

Hi there! I can definitely recommend a couple of vendors that have worked well for me. I've been using Apex Auto Parts for a while now, and they offer net-30 terms without any hassles. Their invoicing system is straightforward, and I usually receive statements weekly, which helps me keep track of my expenses. Additionally, I’ve found their pricing to be competitive, especially for high-demand items. It’s made managing cash flow much easier for my shop. Definitely worth giving them a try!
I've had mixed experiences with vendors offering net-30. One that I would suggest is ProParts, but they can be a little slow on the delivery side. Their customer service is decent, and they do allow net-30 terms, but I’ve had some delays with parts arriving on time. Just make sure to communicate your needs up front, and you might be okay. Also, consider using a software like ShopWare to help track your orders and invoices — it can really streamline the process.
