Any tricks for getting "contractor" discount on supplies?
Now that the Internet has made pricing so transparent, it gets even
more frustrating to walk into a local supply house and realize that you are not getting the same deal that contractors get. - Any tricks on how best to get "contractor discounts" from the local suppy house? - How big are the discounts typically to their parallel off-the-street retail (not list) price? - Is the discount typically the same for plumbing vs. electrical vs. building materials vs. gardening/landscaping, etc.? - What about for "finished" fixtures (e.g., lamps, fawcetts, cabinets) vs. basic materials (e.g., wire, pipe, lumber)? |
