Prices, Pelican vs Stealership

Pelican is cheaper than the Porsche Stealership by quite a bit on many things, how is that possible on parts that they are getting from the dealer? I can see a little, but they are 20-30% lower on a lot of stuff, but they are way more expensive than the local VW shop on a lot of stuff too. Not trying to encourage Wayne to jack the prices up and retire to the Riviera(the place in France, not the wheel) Just curious, anyone?

My guess: volume buying at wholesale. I also venture to guess only a third of the listings in his catalog are OEM parts, but I haven't studied the catalog all that closely.
