u not work in computer field right ?
sellers like cex, moderno , etc retail shop can understand the cost of the hardware. like last week the samsung hardisk price up.
it depends on distributor cost, and we not import direct from samsung

I am already 10 years in industry. I learn many step in bussiness.not just computer.but a lot of bussiness...how they sucessful.how they lingkup.. so from there i make a research...and just Now i have my own shop..its a computer shop..OMG!... You want become dealer or retailer thats your choice.no one blame you for this.but i choose to become Distribitor.(which mean i am control a things and price,others dont have.

). this complaint or ridicilious tukar barang etc etc etc JUST HAPPEND when you are RETAILER.

...Just now i am worked on it to become distrbitor.
When become distribitor `bawah` have dealer.its split to big dealer and small dealer.Distribitor have a right to sell the things or item to any dealer they want.but it not happpend when you become a Dealer because you bawah ada apa?

so all of your in price war and kill each others about cheap price and last stok and who refused will die like a dog ...its not happend to us (distribitor)..
You know why the harddisk price up? its not up but i has been up.it happend when the hard disk just only have 300pcs and suddenly ABC SDN BHD take 200pcs in one list.so left 100pcs.same time DEF Enterprise want take 10pcs and others company want take 10pcs also...so the stock could be not enough or hot finish like pisang goreng.....so how to fix this problem? order more? or tell you need waiti 3 weeks? of course naikkan harga a little bit la.Distribitor not rugi apa pun when you bising-bising harga naik.but if you take the stock also distribitor `happy` with this.

Kiri kanan untung lebih.the 200pcs stock take by ABC SDN BHD can cover rental,salary etc etc..profit from small company its a bonus.can sell its better.cant sell doesnt matter..
have heard konsep penawaran dan permintaan? This tactic happend also to Industri Gula(sugar)...Gula(sugar) price control under goverment mah.Supplier dont have to force goverment make the price up.they just `hide` the stock so......the price will up a little bit.

this thing happend when want raya cina and raya aidilfitri.at this time demand like ....so same things happend here.
Didnt see this coming didnt you? thats what we call this is a BUSSINESS!.

I can see this IT related profitable for to distribitor or Manufacture...Small dealer/online bussiness/home based bussiness will be have a lot of future pain...
