1286916 2012-07-08 06:15:00 I need a place to buy wholesale really cheap parts.
Basically I need a bunch of servers. If anybody could link me that would be awesome, most of my servers are old and crapping out :badpc:

1286917 2012-07-08 06:42:00 I think that most wholesalers would want to know you intend to have an ongoing relationship with them, or it wouldn't be worth creating an account for you.
Wholesalers you can try are:

Sorry to disappoint, but you but that wont happen.

I can tell you right now that there is bugger all markup on hardware these days between Wholesale and Retail. Some of the places like Ascent & PBTech can actually sell you components cheaper than the wholesalers .


If you want examples: this drive from Ascent; www.ascent.co.nz To buy the same drive wholesale from dove is in round figures $22 cheaper, excluding postage.

Greven is right as well, they will want future business, not just a couple or one off buys, plus you will need references from other places you have brought ( not retail shops) , generally you will have to be a business.
