Wholesale Kitchen Cabinets Not Always Bottom
Price
A lot of the expense of kitchen remodeling is in dealing with
resellers of hardware, faucets and cabinets. If it is possible
to deal directly with the factory, better prices can be found.
It is advised to exercise caution when dealing with a company
that claims to offer wholesale kitchen cabinets that is not
affiliated with the manufacturer. There are several
distributors that buy in bulk from the cabinet makers, getting
a good deal per unit, and advertise low prices on wholesale
kitchen cabinets, when the price is realistically higher that
the manufacturer’s price.
Wholesale pricing is usually reserved by the manufacturer for
dealers and in most industries the more a company buys at one,
the bigger the discount they can receive on the same
merchandise. This same pricing structure is available for
wholesale kitchen cabinets from a variety of dealers, whose
prices are determined by what the market will bear and not by
the price at which they purchased the cabinets.
Even buying direct from the factory may not net the true
wholesale cost as factories try to protect their regular
wholesale customers since they do a lot of business with them.
To buy true wholesale kitchen cabinets at the bottom line
price, it is almost necessary to have a friend or relative that
works for the company.
Be Wary Of Lowest Price Claims
Many companies advertise that they offer the lowest wholesale
kitchen cabinets pricing in the market and they may be able to
justify that claim. However, in most businesses visiting an
area with a lower standard of living a lower price may be
available on the same merchandise. With broadcast advertising,
claims for wholesale kitchen cabinets will cover a larger
market area so traveling to another town may not be beneficial.
Most wholesalers also will not offer to meet competing ads from
their own stores.
The bottom line however, is that buying wholesale kitchen
cabinets will probably net a bigger savings than buying direct
from the factory and can allow the homeowner to buy a better
quality product, sometimes cheaper than many of the cabinets
available at discount outlets. If quality and durability is a
major consideration, then buying wholesale kitchen cabinets is
probably the best bet.
Exercise caution when buying so-called wholesale kitchen
cabinets as some unscrupulous dealers may continue to use the
bait-and-switch advertising, offering one quality in the ad and
then being out of stock when you go to buy it. Attempting to
have the customer purchase a more expensive line is a common
practice among some not-so-honest dealers.
