hi
i have recently become a member of sale-hoo
and have been looking though the directory for
mobile phones [apple iphone:25ff5ddf] and electronics eg game consoles

all the suppliers of these products are more expensive
than most major retail outlets

if anyone can help me to find these products
for a reasonable wholesale or dropship price
would be fantastic and much appreciated

thanks very much

Hi timb08,

Welcome to SaleHoo!

The requirements to source Apple products at wholesale are extremely high due to Apple’s desire to protect their brand value. If you want to source these items wholesale, you’ll need to fill out an application on Apple’s website and be able to meet a minimum annual purchase requirement of more than $100,000 and provide 2 business references – among other things. You can read the full requirements here:

Although there is no other way to legitimately source Apple iPhones, iPods and the iPad wholesale except through Apple themselves, you can source Apple accessories from a number of wholesalers and drop shippers. Here is a list of a few SaleHoo suppliers for Apple accessories:

(Don’t forget you need to find the Wholesale section on these supplier’s websites and either fill out an application form or contact them directly to get wholesale prices).

The other option to source Apple products is via liquidators. Liquidators can legitimately resell iPods, iPhones etc, but Apple won’t honor the warranty for products sourced this way.

Some liquidators of Apple products in our directory are:

Hope that helps get you started! If you need more supplier suggestions, or would like some other ideas for hot products to sell, please just let me know :)

I am looking for a good supplier of digital multimeters. They do NOT need to be name brand, but I am looking to resale so must have low prices. Thanks for your time!

hello
salehoo staff and members

i have allready looked into going direct through apple
but one of there requirments is that you must allready have a

Active Account with an Apple Authorized distributor

i have also been looking into this and have found sum companys
that claim to be apple authorized distributor
but still seem to be dodgy or scams

i did find one on the apple website

ingrim micro canada
where they offer you to Join our reseller team
unfortunately part of there Requirements are
Applicants must be qualified resellers of technology products. All purchases from Ingram Micro are intended for resale only within Canada

yet they claim
Ingram Micro is the largest global wholesale provider of technology products & supply chain management services. Access our worldwide operations, press room, financial information and global career opportunities on our corporate site.

i cant seem to find a legitimate apple authorized distributor

do you have a list of Apple Authorized distributors
or know where i can find a
legitimate apple authorized distributor

thanks
