Usually those places are not going to give you a good deal unless you buy a
large quanity and their prices are no better than prices found on line for a
single quanity.
How close are you to Renton? They have a Fry's Electronics. If you establish
a business presence with them, they can act as a wholesaler for you. I have
found their prices better than those "wholesalers" with a good selection of
anything you could think of for computers, plus more.

However I notice wholesalers do have very good prices on CAT5/6 ethernet
cables. I have bought a lot of 100 foot ones for about $20 a piece.
If you really want to fnd one of those places, just look in the yellow
pages.
Usually the ones with just a name are them.
