Looking at stocking some high end coolers and will start contacting companies to potentially be a distributor for them. What companies should I contact? Pelican, K2, Orca, or something else? What says the OB?

It doesn't matter what the label says, they are all from the same place with pretty much the same build quality.

BTW, my OB Special is as good as anything else I have.

Sounds like you're well on your way to making some questionable business decisions. Don't forget to cut the site admins in on your profits after this clear request for future sales or risk the ban hammer.

Your business decision making is obviously horrible then. I don't think you'll survive in the cooler business.

But good luck though!

I didn't get in so I don't remember exactly but I thought everyone got screwed out of their money? Was it just some people or am I remembering wrong?

It was people trying to get coolers that lived several states away and the logistics muddied up the transaction. I think everyone in the Louisiana and Mississippi area are happy.

I didn't realize that. I wish I would have gotten in on it then.

For me it is. About tired of hauling those heavy frickers around. I use my max cold igloo more nowadays.

Maybe somewhat but I'm wanting to stock these for an oilfield supply company. Most of our customers want good coolers in their trucks. We've been asked about selling them so I'm looking into it. Don't think we'd have trouble moving them.
