I am more or less saying don't expect to buy direct from Antec or similar large computer equipment manufacturer unless you are a reseller looking to establish a serious business relationship based upon volume purchasing.

For startup purposes, you will probably be spending a few hours (or more!) to research wholesalers. With that said, yes, Antec could probably point you in the right direction regarding available distributors in your area. If you do buy from a wholesale distributor, research is strongly recommended, as the wholesale market can have numerous pitfalls - perhaps even worse than the retail market.

Thank you . Monsters how on earth did you find that link? Awesome! Thank you! I scanned through the whole darn website for ages and I couldnt find anything. I found its counterpart on the PC Power and Cooling website though. I plan to purchase a similar amount of their Silencer 370Ws. They linked me to a wholesaler in the area who is is gonna send me the quote in a bit, so its probably as you say Rob. I'll check out the price from the dealer Antec points me to and I'll look for others. I got quite a bit of time anyway. I don't plan to start my shop up for another few months at least. Just doing some early research . And my dad (who is lending me the cash to start it up) wants to see some concrete business plans.
