but my big question is who could I talk to find distributors. The other
shops in other towns dont want to give me the answers probally because I
will
be taking their business. Anyone have any info on this ?

Sorry, don't have much on this, but my limited understanding would
indicate
the distributors share the shops reticence.

A distributor demands volume, and a startup already sharing a town, the
internet, whathaveyou, has to demonstrate that they can deliver orders
of
that volume.

They don't care to deal with consumers who are merely looking for
wholesale
prices, nor do they wish to offend regular, long-term customers. I won't
debate the morality (I certainly don't have any say in this) but I can
understand it.

How detailed is your business plan so far? What are your figures for
markets?
