Who are you favorite distributors

[eflat]

thus far I've heard a lot of recommendations for Tech Data and a few for ASI. I am in the process of opening accounts with both.

I'm thinking of not bothering with Ingram Micro since everyone says it's not worth it unless you are buying at lleast $50,000 worth of stuff a month.

Are there any others you would recommend?

I buy my stuff from JoJo but usually only about 2G's worth.

Even at the peak of my business, I never did the whole distributor thing. I always ordered on a 1:1 basis with Newegg and a handful of other consumer-level sites. Prices weren't as good, but I wasn't stuck with quotas or minimum orders or such.

Yeah but you don't build rapport (sp?) with manufacturers like that. They only track distributors. Hell, I could buy everything from Newegg and save a heck of a lot of money but in 3-5 years my business wouldn't be any better in the eyes of any manufacturers than it is now.

JoJo's, eh? Any others? I guess the fewer the better anyhow. I would like to buy exclusively from one if at all possible.
