Have been trying to reach Merrick for a few days now and can never get through by phone and e-mails go unanswered. What needs to be doen to set up an account with them. Just want to make sure it is even a possibility and I am not going thru all of this for nothing. Do you have to be a reseller of components or jsut have a tax certificate? I just always see people saying that all these great products are available and like what there web site shows but can't seem to make contact. Please advise.
Thanks in advance,
John-Michael

If you do not have a re-sale license, you can buy most Merrick Products from Summer Moon.

I have my resale license but will just be buying components for use for building and repair for customers. Just making sure they are not only selling to major distributors. Like summer mon they are good folks they just do not have wholesale available.

If you have a licensed rod building and repair business, I would think you would qualify. Keep calling - they may just be busy but I'm sure they'd be happy to discuss this with you.
