TERMS OF SERVICE
Last Updated: February 4, 2026
OVERVIEW & ACCEPTANCE
Welcome to Bandit Distribution (operating as Hempwholesaler.com). The terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Bandit Distribution PA, LLC ("Seller"). These terms also extend protections to our predecessors, including Bandit Distribution, Inc. (a New York Corporation), and our successors and assigns.
Bandit Distribution operates this store and website, including all related information, content, features, tools, products and services in order to provide you, the retail buyer, with a curated B2B shopping experience (the “Services”). Bandit Distribution is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide the Services to you.
The below terms and conditions, together with any policies referenced herein (these “Terms of Service” or “Terms”) describe your rights and responsibilities when you use the Services.
IMPORTANT: THESE TERMS CONTAIN MANDATORY ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER PROVISIONS.
By visiting, interacting with or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or Privacy Policy, you should not use or access our Services.
SECTION 1 - ACCESS, ACCOUNT & B2B ELIGIBILITY
By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you represent that you are at least twenty-one (21) years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher).
1.1 Wholesale Only. This Site operates strictly as a Business-to-Business (B2B) wholesaler. By placing an order, you represent and warrant that:
-
You are a valid business entity holding all necessary licenses (including state-specific hemp or tobacco licenses) to resell hemp-derived products in your jurisdiction.
-
You are purchasing products for commercial resale purposes only.
-
You possess a valid Resale Certificate or Tax Exemption Certificate, which must be provided to Seller upon request.
1.2 Account Security. To use the Services, you may be asked to provide certain information, such as your email address, billing, payment, and shipping information. You represent and warrant that all the information you provide is correct, current and complete. You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all of your account activity. You may not transfer, sell, assign, or license your account to any other person.
SECTION 2 - CORPORATE DOMICILE & LOCATION DISCLAIMER
2.1 Commercial Situs (Pennsylvania). Hempwholesaler.com maintains its physical inventory, warehousing, fulfillment center, and primary place of commercial distribution exclusively in Jessup, Pennsylvania. All contracts of sale are formed in, and all shipments originate from, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
2.2 Administrative Offices vs. Distribution. While Seller may perform extremely minimal administrative functions in other jurisdictions (including New York State)—strictly limited to digital tasks such as updating website listings or responding to emails—Seller does not store, distribute, ship, or process orders from New York. Any digital records or directory listings implying a physical inventory presence in New York are inaccurate regarding our current operational structure.
-
For the avoidance of doubt: Our presence in New York is strictly administrative and incidental. We do not engage in the sale, distribution, or physical handling of hemp products within or from New York State.
SECTION 3 - PRODUCTS & COMPLIANCE
3.1 Farm Bill Compliance. All products sold by Seller contain less than 0.3% Delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta-9 THC) on a dry weight basis and are federally legal compliant hemp under the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (the "2018 Farm Bill").
3.2 FDA Disclaimer. These statements and products have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
3.3 Representation of Products. We have made every effort to provide an accurate representation of our products and services in our online stores. However, please note that colors or product appearance may differ from how they may appear on your screen due to the type of device you use to access the store and your device settings and configuration. We do not warrant that the appearance or quality of any products or services purchased by you will meet your expectations.
3.4 Modifications. All descriptions of products are subject to change at any time without notice at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time.
SECTION 4 - ORDERS, SHIPPING RESTRICTIONS & LEGAL MATRIX
When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. Bandit Distribution reserves the right to accept or decline your order for any reason. Your order is not accepted until confirmed.
4.1 Resale Warranty. You represent and warrant that your purchases are for commercial resale or business use and not for personal or household consumption.
4.2 State Law Compliance. State laws regarding "intoxicating" hemp derivatives (Delta-8, Delta-10, THCa, etc.) are volatile. Buyer is solely responsible for knowing the laws of their specific jurisdiction.
4.3 Compliance Matrix (As of Feb 4, 2026). Seller reserves the right to cancel any order destined for a jurisdiction where products are restricted or banned. The following matrix is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice:
