Each dealer requires a certain amt. of overhead.
I have maybe 50 places I can buy cpqs at in austin..that's rediculous..
cpq wants the 400 to make a lot of money and have inventory on hand when customer orders it.
this is cpq's strategy from 1983 to about 1988...
it's a better deal for everyone.
and makes it easy to get to 2 weeks of inventory.
cpq can have microage take 3 times their presnet inventory and cut the dealers and that will equal drop inventory to 2 weeks worth.
I use to buy from microage channel..
but, they never had the pc's..so I changed.
