Commodity Biz Just Got Harder

Folks,

You know I've never been a fan of trying to sell popular/commodity items... I
came across
this on the Costco website in USA, then I nosed around their UK site as well...
With very low
prices and one pallet minimum, what's hard just got harder...

Commodity Biz just got harder...

Wholesale customers interested in purchasing large quantities (container loads)
of
merchandise for export outside the U.S., or to where Costco does not have a
physical
location, should contact the export sales division: exports@costco.com
then

http://www.costco.co.uk/Export/export.htm

Costco welcomes bulk purchase enquiries from both the domestic market and
abroad.
Minimum order quantities are typically 1 pallet per item, and sales are on ex.
works basis
from any of our UK locations.

Through using our extensive global buying power, we may be able to satisfy
specific item
requirements, outside our everyday assortment.

We can also advise on various logistical / exportation issues. ***

John
