Here is the difference. I distribute for a lubricant manufacturer. I buy product by the skid and sell to the end user one or two at time. I sell a ton of lubricants. Imagine my manufacturer dealing with the 1000's of phone calls and emails from people buying 1 can or just 1 case. They would rather sell to me at a discount and make me buy it by the skid. Plus, they have a built in sales force with my guys in plants pushing product. It costs them NOTHING to have my sales guys working for them.
