How many retailers that do maintenance on customer's systems have a written agreement that is either signed or at least presented and discussed prior to starting the account? If you do have a written agreement, could you share with me the main points? I am assuming there is at least a hold...

I think I may have steered this a little off topic, so I apologize for that. I have to agree with most of the above statements. I do believe that the majority of wholesalers are decent people and do their best. But, legally I cannot advertize something I don't have, so why does this supplier...

It's funny....I posted pretty much this same frustration a few months back. I definately didn't get as much discussion. It's also funny that today I got my (possibly final) order from a very popular 104th St. wholesaler. I say possibly final because yet again they screwed me. I'm a little...

Actually, my question was if my experience is normal. So far, I have gotten mixed answers. Mary and Steve (whom I will try) both say 90% fill depending on when I get my order in. Excellent. I also have just set up with another large dist. that I am going to try. They also say 90%. I say...

I recently purchsed the remaining inventory and equipment from an established (but defunct) business. I did not purchase "the business" per say, so I had to start over with suppliers and the like. Here's the dilemma: I talked at length with the previous owner about what supplier to use. I...

If you don't want to order direct A&M Aquatics, a wholesaler in Lansing MI, carries them piecemeal. Kinda pricey, but you don't have to buy a pallet. -Aaron
