What is Close The Deal?
Close The Deal
host an internet platform and community of buyers where you can buy what you want, without paying retail prices.
All you need to do is pre-order. We then place the order with the factory, who make the products which we then send directly to you.
This means we can negotiate the best bulk-buying discounts to unlock prices that are as close as possible to the factory cost price.
We worked out how to streamline the business processes from factories to customers. That's how we created Close The Deal.

How does it work?
There are always middlemen, agents and retailers involved in producing and delivering what you buy.
Not with us. We believe that they are both unnecessary and expensive.
In a nutshell; if you’re willing to be patient, you can save a LOT of money – and we make it easy!
So what do I do?
In a nutshell; if you’re willing to be patient, you can save a LOT of money – and we make it easy!
So what do I do?
First, find a deal you love on our website.
Then compare prices with other retailers – you won’t believe your eyes when you see how much you’ll save by ordering with us.
Place your pre-order through our website, enter your payment method, delivery address and phone number money will not be taken from your account until the deal is full.
Each deal is available for up to 30 days – sometimes they sell out quicker!
At the end of the 30 days, when the deal is full, we will place the order with the factory, and your credit/debit card will be charged.
Once your product is made, they'll ship the container to us and we'll deliver your item(s) straight to your front door.
We guarantee each product and we’re always here for you if something were to go wrong.
How are Close The Deal prices so low?
Since you pre-pay for your order and because we operate online and don’t hold stock, we save on big, expensive retail stores and warehouses.
We also operate with a much smaller workforce and our money doesn’t get tied up in stock.
This allows us to pass those savings on to you, helping you to save more on the products that you love.

When will I be charged after placing my order?
We don't store your credit card details - this information is encrypted, and comes from Stripe payment platform.
All orders will only be charged to you after the minimum quantity has been met – either on day 30 or sooner if the product is in high demand.
However, if the minimum quantity is not met within the 30 days, the deal will not go through and there will be no charge to your credit card.

What if my payment fails?
If your payment fails, don’t sweat it! We will send you an email to let you know the issue and afterwards you have 48 hours to follow the instructions attached and re-submit your payment details. If you are unable to do so within the 48 hours, the deal will continue without you and you will unfortunately have to wait for the next one.
Are your products guaranteed?
Yes! In addition to the Competition and Consumer Rights Act 2015 (UK), every product you purchase from us is guaranteed for one year. We are also available to help you find spare or replacement parts within a reasonable timeframe after your purchase. Any problem you may have, reach out to us and we will do our absolute best to help! Customer satisfaction is one of our top priorities.
Where’s my Order?
All you have to do to track your order is log on to your account. Go to “Account”, then “Profile” and click “Purchases” tab. This will allow you to see full information of order. Under the link “Show schedule” is where all the important dates of your order are. This will allow you to see the estimated arrival date of your product as well as which stage of the process your product is in while on its way to you.
You will also receive email updates as soon as your item ships from the manufacturer and when it is about to be delivered to your doorstep. Those emails will be sent to the email address linked to your account.
All updates are available to you at any time under "Account” then "Profile" and then “Notifications.”

When should I expect my delivery?
For orders that exceed
£50
a signature is required so the courier company will inform you of the delivery date and contact you one hour before arrival. If you won’t be there to sign for your package, you may also authorise them to leave it somewhere safe. The courier company does reserve the right to add an extra charge after a failed delivery attempt. Orders less than
£50
will be delivered and left somewhere safe. No signature is required. We will mail you with the appropriate tracking number as soon as we receive it.
My address changed. What do I do?
If you’ve placed an order to your old address, contact our customer support team
ku.oc.laedehtesolc@troppus
and we will phone you to update the delivery address for you.
If you don’t have any pending orders, new information will be updated automatically when you input new information in checkout form to create a new order.

I missed a deal, can you add my order after it has closed?
Unfortunately, no.
However no need to panic! We re-run deals often and even have a “COMING SOON” section where you can search and add the item you missed to your Wishlist. Next time, we’ll send you an email letting you know that the deal is available, so you won’t miss out a second time!
Do you have anyone who can do the installation?
Our company will be happy to deliver the pergola to you, for Installation I recommend the Flatpack Assembly Services. They are friendly, professional guys and have branches all over UK. Visit their website:
https://www.flatpackkitchenservices.com/uk/
The deal I pre-ordered didn’t go through… What now?
It’s disappointing when a deal doesn’t go through, both for you the customer but also for us – we spend a lot of time and energy getting a product to that stage. Unfortunately, if there aren’t enough customers interested, there’s nothing we can do to change that.
Since we never charge your credit card unless a deal succeeds, you never paid anything so no need to check your account or request a refund.
Sometimes the product will be listed in our section “COMING SOON” with a “Returning soon” badge, so if you’re still interested, you can add the product to your Wishlist, and we will notify you if and when the deal is available.
You can help us to ensure that a deal will go through by telling your friends and family to buy it too. Share it on social media, tell your community, anything to spread the word and get more people logging on to buy that product. The more people that buy, the more likely the deal is to succeed!

Can I pick up/collect my product?
To get such a low prices we hold onto stock for no more than 2 days, that's how we save on costly warehouses and storage staff. So, unfortunately we can't provide a pick up/collect service for you.
How do you choose products?
We employ a team of buyers that search across the globe to find unique and interesting products to list.
When we find a new product that we’d like to sell, we frequently compare the same product from a number of different factories and choose the best from those options.
This also means that we reject quite a few products that simply don’t meet our expectations or standards.
All of our products meet UK safety standard requirements.

What if I want another product that is not listed?
If you’re looking for something that you can’t find in
Close The Deal
list, you can suggest a new product. Simply go to "Future Deals" and click either "Show Interest" or use the ‘Contact Us’ form in our ‘Help Menu’ and we’ll do our best to hunt it down. If enough of our other customers show an interest, then we can get to work importing it for you!
How much are the delivery fees?
During the checkout process, your delivery charge will be automatically calculated after you choose your address from our dropdown menu. Afterwards, you can decide whether or not to proceed with your purchase.
If you have trouble getting the system to accept your address, make sure that you are not using any auto-fill options. Instead, use the Google Maps dropdown menu to select your address.
If the system still doesn’t recognize your address, check to make sure you are in our current delivery zone, if you aren’t, the address won’t be recognized.
For any further assistance, please email ku.oc.laedehtesolc@troppus

Do you deliver to ground floors only?
Unless you have a working lift that is large enough to accommodate your package, due to health and safety reasons we can only deliver to a ground floor.
The decision is completely up to the courier company.

Can you combine shipping?
Unfortunately, no. This is due to the various arrival dates of our deals since we don’t have a warehouse – in order to keep costs down – all items must be shipped as soon as they arrive in the country.
What about bulk orders of a single item?
Please email
ku.oc.laedehtesolc@troppus
