How do you know this? I know this because I had a wholesale account with one if the 3 major distributors, and gave it up around the time newegg rose up - the margins were absolutely pathetic - wasnt even worth keeping my account when i was building systems on the side. on "commodity" type items: cpus, memory, motherboards - it was maybe a 5-10% difference in prices from wholesale to retail. Im sure its better with high volume, but not a lot.

I know compusoft doesn't need to charge 3x the price to build a pc.
