they probably want to sign you up for a wholesale account, if you have a business that would use their product.

No you don't. In my experience, their service sucks. I buy all my stuff from SSF, the prices are usually better as well. Whatever SSF doesn't have, Westex/EPI parts can fill in.

I guess it all depends on whom your sales rep is...

My friend uses SSF and World Pac often. World Pac's prices are in line and he gets his parts overnite, usually by noon the next day. It really does depend on your salesperson and airfreight in your neighborhood.

And talking about other suppliers on the Pelican Parts Forum.
Some posters never "get it"! Amazing, but maybe not, given
what occurs on this forum.

I think the other posters were talking about wholesale accounts. As far as I know, Pelican isn't in this business.
