that is distribution there are different price points depending on who is doing the selling
for example one of the reasons i'm so *curious* about their *strategic partnership* with whomever <my money would be on allied .. to start>
is they will save aero money .. especially if product is drop shipped directly into calif <not utah> where it is un-crated .. inspected ... repackaged and then re-shipped .. so if allied is selling 2k aero products per month .. and the agreement is they buy say 3 months worth of inventory .. at a time .. then of course aero will give them *concessions* .. you always get a better discount with volume
so yep .. that 39 percent .. may be less with the audit
but this is why .. it's so important folks understood why aero switched from low vol indy dealers to higher volume regional and auto warehouse distributors
btw .. i'd suspect their best margins come from those products .. they themselves .. sell directly -- however i doubt that *vol* will ever rival allied or henschel ... ever
so yep .. looking towards additional info re: strategic especially if it works as well as i'd expect .. it should *morph* to henschel
hey at least you acknowledge they'll be audited that *fact* still eludes some ..
