Hey everyone...

I'm planning on setting up a small computer systems business from home. I have the knowledge to do it and i can even create my own website...

However, to make at least some profit from selling each system, i was told i need to buy wholesale as buying from retailers just makes the systems being sold more expensive.

But i don't understand, i have looked on several wholesale websites and all the products seem just as expensive as the ones the retailers sell.

How do i make any profit if other companies/ businesses can make the same sort of systems for cheaper and still make profit?

oh... and whats the difference between a wholesaler and a distributor, and how do retailers buy their stock and make profit?

All answers are much appreciated.
Thanks, Tom :)
