There is no tech support from Amazon but your order arrives in 2 days and there are no games when you want to return something. If you cant get your distributors to take/ship your orders then its a no brainer...use Amazon.
But...this isn't 1987. You can order things online and have them shipped to you. We have a local disty that i love...Allnet...that got "snapped" up by snapav. I cant think of a single negative thing to say about snapav. I dont handle the business/$ end of things but i can tell you this...its easy to hit $10k per year. Wire/Network gear/racks should put you close.
