hey is there any IT vendor you guys know of that doesn't require
a credit card that I can buy stuff over the phone by looking or just calling it in
andthen they invoice me and I send a check?

I just hate always having to do the credit card thing. I need speed.
Call, order, email me the invoice, pay check now.

???

    Almost every IT vendor worth buying from does net terms. Ingram Micro, Techdata, CDW, even Newegg.

    There's room for those who want the easy work and those who want the challenges. You will, of course, generally be compensated in proportion to what you shoulder. :smile:

    Unfortunately, many net terms are based on business credit, which one may not have. I know that there are several VAR's that won't give you net terms unless you have a DnB listing. It's very difficult to get net terms if you're a new startup company...

    Indeed, it is generally not something you can just get. However, if you built a relationship with the vendor it will happen. If you aren't "big" enough to use a distributor, HP Source, etc, you will probably want to start building a relationship with CDW.

    Yeah, I ran into this problem with my current employer. They're a startup company and do not have much credit, nor do they have a DnB listing. I had a GREAT relationship with my Insight contact (I used to work with him.... AT Insight), but they would not extend us any credit without a DnB listing. Same thing with Dell and CDW. Other companies, however, would extend net 30 to us without any credit applications or anything (5k limit). Same thing with
