How do I find video game wholesale suppliers?

The best way to do this is to ring up the game maker Eg. Activision they make Call of duty black ops. You will have to buy in bulk or they will not be intersted in you.

This is something I do not understand. If you call Sony, they'll tell you to contact their distributor. If you are lucky, you mey get direct contact. If not, you may spend couple of days ringing different departments/people until you finally arrive at right one (or you may not arrive at all as in my case with Microsoft's sales dept. who gave me the certain number to call only to find out after 5 minute talk that I was talking to tech support(?!)).

And then after initial conversation/email, no follow-up what-so-ever! As the saying goes: ignorance is a bliss! Indeed it is for some.

I have a store front, and want to add more line of product such as video games. Do I just call up all the companies such as sony, blizzard, THQ, Take-Two etc.. just request I want to carry their product?

can you guys please point me in the right direction?

thanks

I have multiple distributors I can point your towards but be warned you have to have a company to be able to purchase from them.

There are number of ways to get a hold of distributors. The best is probably via tradegroups so tops on the list for you is the VDSA.org and then NARM.com. The game area is an interesting one as the major manufactures of game often control the distribution (just like the music biz) and it hasn't been a big enough industry YET for independent distributors to move into the area.

Our company will be offering games, we believe the non-shoot-em up or SeriousGames are the direction that we venture down and since you left a number one of us will be calling.

Hope this helps.

Going to bring this back from the dead a bit, if anyone could forward me a list of distributors that would be great, I've been contacting most of the ones i could find via major routes short of the developers themselves.

Any helpful info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
