finding wholesalers/manufacturers

[mattZkplz]

Hi RFDers,

I'm planning on buying goods, more specifically softball bats, on bulk, and reselling them. I was wondering if you guys know of a wholesaler, or a manufacturer in and around GTA that have high-end quality bats, such as Easton, Worth, etc. Is there a site like globalsources.com, or alibaba.com, that has a list of Canadian/American wholesalers that actually sells brand name goods?

Thanks,

Good question, I am wondering the same, but for a totally different field of goods.

liquidation.com ?

They have some wholesales.

liquidation.com is more or less a wholesale that sells a bundle of different types of goods, but thanks anyway Tehz. I'm looking for a wholesalers that specializes in sporting goods that I can buy bats in bulk.

It depends on what you mean by bulk. You can import them from china (www.alibaba.com) but you are looking at getting at least a 20ft container. Which is a very very large investment.

Ask a National Sports manager about this. I'm sure he will tell you where he got his wholesales from and that way you can buy bulks.

ROFL yea right. As if that would work.

i could try it aimfox, but i highly doubt it'll work. Retail stores, like National, Sportschek, etc, all get their bats directly from the manufacturer if I'm not mistaken.. I dont think they actually wholesale.
