Wholesale Connections


Any of you guys know any good plumbing supply wholesalers, with real "wholesale" prices to order from?

Shower valves, faucets, supply lines, etc.

...and possibly water heaters.

Re: Wholesale Connections


This is the type of question an obnoxious homeowner would ask. The reason there is a difference between retail and wholesale pricing on material is because the homeowner asks so many questions and takes up so much time from the counterperson, while only buying 1 piece of material, that the business has to charge accordingly to maintain margins.

If you want wholesale pricing contact a local supply house, open trade lines, and buy wholesale quantity.

First of all this site is full of people across the country with plenty of different resources. So why wouldnt I ask, if I can benefit? Secondly I think its safe to say that you aren't a business owner, because this is the type of question business owners ask to increase profit while keeping happy clients, happy. And third, if you didn't know, Boston is one of the most expensive cities in the US....hence the word "order."
