FAQ 06: I cannot find the flag I require.
All the flags that we sell are listed in the database connected to this web site. Sizes and prices are also shown. All the different flags we sell are listed on the home page. Also there is a Search Text Box shown at the top of each page which will search the flag database. If these two options do not show the flag that you require, then we do not stock it. There are two main reasons why we might not stock it:
--The flag is a registered design or copyright. Flags which fall into this category are the Olympic, Aboriginal and most Sporting Clubs.
--The manufacturers do not believe there is sufficient demand to justify the manufacturing costs. Flags are normally screen printed in large numbers.
 
FAQ 07: Do you have a shop where we actually can go and buy a flag or pickup our order?
The business model Admiral flags has adopted is to focus only on internet sales. This avoids the necessity of having to lease showrooms and engage sales staff. This keeps our costs low and enables us to offer the low prices you see on our web site.
