Newegg vs. Ingram Micro

[Wyck]

I've got a small business where I resell a decent amount of equipment... I've been using Newegg up to this point, but I'm wondering if pursuing an account w/ Ingram Micro would be worth the $100 investment... Anybody know if their reseller-only prices beat newegg?

What $100 investment?

Why not use both? That is vat the daddy does. Its funny when we start competing with each other...he usually pwns me when it comes to LCDs, monitors, CPUs, mobos etc. but I usually pwn with removable media, memory, hard drives, video cards and other 'consumer' peripherals.

EDIT: Unless you're buying significant volumes (i.e. my dad just bought 35 Geforce FX 5200 cards the other day) and you have a good rep and good negotiation skills, stick with NewEgg!

not unless you buy significant volumes. in general most of those wholesale places prices are based on volume, for small volumes prices are very close to resale.
