Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1753076, member: 112"]Yeah, there's plenty of dealers like that out there. But that's not the ones you want to deal with.   True, but, you knew there was a but didn't ya ? Large volume dealers will happily establish a relationship with a smaller dealer who lives in the real world. They will fall all over themselves just to have a trusted outlet where they can get rid of the common stuff they don't want, at a reasonable price. They will do this because it is to their benefit to do so since so many sellers coming to them want to make all or nothing deals on what they are selling. Having that outlet with the smaller dealer, that allows the large dealer to offer a bit more on what he's buying because he knows he will not get stuck with the common stuff he doesn't want. And it's a win for the small dealer too because it gives him a source for that common stuff at reasonable prices. The ones who bicker all the time that you mention, they don't live in the real world. They don't know the market, so you just say no to those guys and walk away. I'm not saying that any of this is easy. You don't contact just any dealer and expect to be able to set up a relationship with him. You have to work at it, spend some time talking to people until you find the right ones. But it most definitely can be done. Why ? Because it's a win win for both parties. And that's what everybody wants.[/QUOTE]
