bulk buyers i need a site to order LCD tv's

earonk · 02-21-2008, 09:24 PM

I've been tasked to set up a QA dept and need 4-7 tv's to hook up all the consoles(game). problem is I've never need to order stuff in the past as we had "people" that knew where we had accounts and would do PO's and such.
This new place im at doesn't have any vendor accounts and such so i'm left to vist the www to find a place. I've found buy and newegg with a respectable variety(different sizes, hdmi, 4:3 ratio) but was wondering if any of you all know some other places similar to those with large varities of brands and types and sizes...

i'm pretty much looking for 17-21 in lcd, low end to high end.

tigerdirect.com
cdw.com
newegg.com

all depends on how fast or cheap you need this stuff and if you want a PO based corp account for future buying. My co now uses cdw which sure isn't the cheapest.

tiger can be hit or miss, but I usually am lucky with them

Newegg has a 19" widescreen Samsung 920NW for 199 with Samsung $40 mail in rebate. Don't know if it meets your specs but the price is hard to beat.

Just re-read your post. Ah, you need all different models? I've found Newegg to be great, overall, especially on pricing. For more of a relationship, CDW is better. CDW usually ships from Illinois. Newegg dropships from their distributors, so product often comes from a closer location.

if you are ordering that many, don't go through their usual checkout, contact their sales department directly and ask for a price on an order like that, often they will offer trade terms of at least 5% if not 5/10

I had a bad experience with tiger direct and would never do business with them again, ever.

I did lots of business with TigerDirect when I was deployed to KSA. They were the only ones who could get electronics from the states to Saudi in around a week. Our Comm guys loved it when I bought through them.
