Powered by Silencer Shop Dealer FAQs
The 2.8% is only applicable if we made a sale on behalf of your business. This is only applicable if a customer called us, or placed and order on the website without utilizing your URL. It is applied from the Dealer Cost of the silencer, and not from your selling price.
You certainly can. The dealer pricing portal has a tutorial video associated with it that can be found here.
Unfortunately not. The service offered through PBSS is a computer automated system that we have spent years perfecting in order to minimize ATF error rates.
We work hard to insure that we keep a very competitive pricing structure as well as a full inventory (in-stock). We also offer regular exclusives and promotions.
We will not drop ship anything on your behalf.
All Powered by dealers have a unique URL that can be used on your website or sent to your customers to SilencerShop.com and only show your dealership and your pricing.
The answer to this is: yes. If you sell an item in your store through your point of sale, you collect payment from the customer and assign an item (out of your inventory or ours) through your dealer portal. If the silencer comes out of the Silencer Shop inventory, then we will charge you your standard dealer price and form/ship it to you ASAP. If the customer checks out and pays on our site then we will collect payment from the customer. Payment to you is sent from Silencer Shop when the suppressor is sent at the time of Form 3 approval/shipping.
You are not responsible for capturing sales tax on our website. We collect sales tax based on a regularly updated national database of sales tax rates and pay the appropriate agencies for orders placed on our site.
If a customer orders a silencer and accessories together, we will ship the accessories directly to the customer to reduce the number of items you have to store in-house.
You will be able to log into the Dealer Dashboard which will allow you to bring up a pricing table that will display the pricing for all of the silencers on our site. You will be able to see what your cost is, what the minimum price is, our suggested prices as well as MAP and MSRP. Prices can only be adjusted for silencers, not accessories/ancillary items. Here is a quick video tutorial for that exact process.
When the customer selects a silencer to add to the cart, they will select a dealer from a drop-down. This menu will show the dealer, dealer’s price, and miles from the customer as well as if they are Powered by Silencer Shop or not. The customers can also see dealer reviews and your dealer profile if you have created it.
With our dealer rewards program, dealers are listed with more priority the higher they are in our Rewards Program, within a certain radius based on their level.
On your statement, items in red text are what is due, items in bold black text are due next week, and all other text is what else we have for your account coming up. For further help please email AR@silencershop.com
Your account is set up by default to “Pay when order is placed.” We can also set you up on “Due at Ship” terms and Net 30-day terms pending a simple credit application process. The option to auto-pay by credit card (no fees) and ACH, as well as pay orders by electronic check (CHAX), is also available. Contact your dealer rep to learn more.
Nope, we sure don't.
Yes, you’ll add it through the Manage Inventory tab in your dealer account dashboard.
The check in the box is your profit from the sale of the silencer. We will also subtract your processing fee (based on your loyalty level) from this payment.
Our most successful dealers place a link to their unique URL in the signature of their email, posting it on social media, or making a page talking about silencers on their website. Also, having it loaded up on a computer or tablet in your shop can make it handy to sell silencers on our site there in your own storefront. If you need pictures or logos to use in a link, please feel free to reach out!
You can sell directly out of our inventory from your dealer portal or send customers to your unique URL to have those sales count towards your loyalty level. Here is a video walkthrough to explain exactly how to do that!
That depends on a number of factors, but the answer is that if a product is able to be back order, then we have more on order and inbound. Typically, we try to only enable backorder for products that we expect to be back in stock in 2-4 weeks (i.e., The manufacturer has an approved form 3 to us for another batch). The most common exception to this rule is for new and high-demand items where people want to reserve a spot in line, but delivery of the product is difficult to predict.
Dealer rewards points are earned by purchasing applicable items. For more information, visit the Dealer Rewards Program page.
Dealer rewards statuses are not reflected until the item(s) are paid for and then the conversion will happen at midnight that day. If you are still experiencing problems, please contact Dealer Support. Refer to the Dealer Rewards for current PBSS reward tiers.
If it isn't yet assigned to a customer, you can delete the item from your inventory and add it again.
