You will have to put up with the stress when gear gets dumped back on your lap to sort out any 'issues' or warranty. The customer will expect a very fast warranty turnaround, you will be at the mercy of the local repair agent/local spare parts supply.
I have seen a few warranty repairs take over 3 months after being sent to the warranty repair agent (yes, big name brand, NOT parallel import)-
YOU will be ultimately responsible for this as you sold to them & may end up refunding in full (& wearing the cost/loss yourself)
All for 5% : bah forget it.

And dont get into haggling the price, be firm & definite with quote on hardware.
You may also need to be gst registered- check with the tax dept.
Put a disclaimer on the quote & invoice.

I gotta completely agree with you. And this is how i will try to do it.


Thanks for all the responses guys.

Wholesalers are no different to retailers. There's the ones with no customer service then there are the good ones.
I stick to the good ones.
