Jimmy those places are rip offs, where are the deals???

we need wholesalers or distributors that sell for lower then retail to help business owners grow. These suppliers you always mention are 35-45% above retail prices???

iphones sell retail for $349 - 399 in stores and the suppliers you have all sell them for over 500??? where's the logic?

If Iphones are what you are looking for try reading the description. Most places now are selling only Unlocked And Hacked Iphones. Which is one of the reasons the phone is so high. Also this phone is so high in demand apple still cant keep up with the demand so stocks are low. Ebay sellers are buying up the iphones directly from apples website as fast as apple can produce them. Hacking them and selling them for $200 bucks more. Driving up the prices of any supplier that still has some.

Ask Wal-mart why they sell nintendo Wii's for $660 Its because demand is so high they can keep up with it so they raise the prices to profit off the units they actually do have.


Also do you even know the wholesale price of a phone. Its the same as any electronic item you will find anywhere on the planet. Only a Few dollars Cheaper then you will find it retail. Retailers dont profit off of just one unit. they sell tens of thousands of items to make profits on those items. Video Games, Electronics,Phones and more. Have to be sold by the millions to make retailers the money they make.


Goto places like ** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members** the Largest wholesaler of electronics in the USA. The prices you will see are only a few dollars cheaper then you will find them.

And if your looking for a distributer expect the same prices even for a 10,000 unit order. If your lucky they may take a dollar off the price of each unit for the large order.

The problem is not with the suppliers its the fact that 10 million people are looking for the same thing Iphones, Xbox360's,Ps3,s and every single HOT HIGH DEMAND ITEM ON THE MARKET.

You want to build a business with little capitol then you need to focus on cheaper products with a high resale vaue. Not a high dollar item with a piss poor resale value and huge mins.

Ask all the titanium powersellers that just quit ebay because the FVF Fees went up on them and thier $2.00 to $3.00 per item profits on electronics items instantly became a Loss

Theres your logic :D

Jimmy nothing against you but that information is incorrect wal-mart never have and never will sell over the MSRP prices are maintained at $269 - 279 for the wii's. Do not know what wal-mart your shopping from but in canada you will never find a retail store allowed to sell above the MSRP.

by the way this information is for canada wal-mart, your american wal-marts are out to lunch LOL.


i am just frustrated cause i cannot find anything in canada that i can buy for re-sale? i need some help or some guidance Jimmy what do you suggest for me?

I think you may want to research your last post. Goto Wal-Mart.com and search for nintendo Wii. The console is there for $660 And a minimum order of 1 . This is not a deluxe package. It is the basic console system.

And a retailer can choose what they want to sell items for. Look at your top Retailers. They have many items that have a MSRP of $99 and they sell that same item for $149.00 You Forget that supply and demand controls the marketplace. If the demand is very high a retailer can and will jack the price up on a given item.

We went to samsclub last week and they had got 3 Wii's in last tuesday and they sold those wii's for $429 Each much Higher then the average Ebay Price. And they are owned by Wal-Mart Corperation.

My advice for your second question is to get involved with pallet sales. My company does pallet sales but I would suggest you check out sources closer to you and located in canada.
Atlantic surplus specializes in surplus sales to canadians and they may be a good choice to check out.

Cell phone supplier--www.brightstar.com--I've bought from them before and they have lots of good prices but they are often out of stock on the "good deals". Phones come factory unlocked for GSM. They don't require minimums and will offer quantity disciounts if you can afford to buy in large bulk. They have tons of accessories like bluetooth and cases.

Good luck.

I worked for a very large cell phone company and the money is not with the phone but with the contracts and features you all choose. Retailers get a cut as well.

Hey just a note on this. Better check your bills. We just dumped our AT&T service for our cell phones. They were ripping us off. My wife downloaded some Games about 2 years ago. They were charging us for those downloads consistently every single month. About 60 Dollars each month. Our contract was for $59 each month but our bills were alwasy $150. We found many other misc charges on the bill as well that we never signed up for. I never really looked at the bills before. We just pay and go about our business. And we never once in 2 years went over our min that we were paying for. So more then likely they took us for several thousand each year for the ten years we were using them.

We now use prepaid phones. And vonage for our home phone.Same service just a much lower cost. We have it arranged to press a few buttons anytime of the day and our 300 min can be reset.

So Id advise you if your bill is high. Read over it really carefully

Hi,
are you sure they are a cellphone supplier?
in their website there states "BrightStar is a leading provider of application engineering services to Global 2000 and mid-sized companies and public sector organizations"
