Where do the suppliers get them?

[Vapor Pete]

Sorry if this is in the wrong area. mods, please move it, if it is.

So the wife and I have been buying kr808d-1 carts for almost 3 years, and we buy them quite often. She brought up to me something I have been wondering myself: If suppliers can buy them in bulk at (I've heard) around $1.50 for a box of 5, why cant I?

Where do the suppliers get them from, and why cant we (808d-1 users) just skip the middle-men and the 7x mark ups?

Anyone?

The biggest barrier is the shipping costs from China, as well as minimum order quantities. I've never seen prices quite that low on Chinese wholesalers sites, more like $3.50 and up. I'm a 510 user, but $4.99 from one of my favorite suppliers seems good -

A buck a piece seems pretty good.

I could be off on the $1.50 for 5 I mentioned. It just sticks in my mind that I head read that somewhere. In any event, thanks for the link to GP. His carts are empty, which is ok, but I really interested in where the suppliers get their flavored carts from, and how I can get them.

I suppose if the information where that easy to obtain, suppliers would be out of business... but its worth asking the question imo.

You can try ordering directly from the manufacturers, but you'll probably have to order at least 500 cartomizers.
I think suppliers that offer flavored carts usually fill them themselves, but I'm not 100% sure of that.

Right. I understand that.

My question is, in effect, who are the manufacturers and how do I order from them?
