Question ID: 196858
I'm looking for qualified anime wholesalers. By "qualified" I mean I
want legitimate email addresses and contact names of people
(individuals) so that I can contact them directly with my requests. By
"wholesalers" I mean that these folks should be willing to sell anime
to me at discounted rates because I am willing to purchase multiple
copies.

I'm not really looking for generic email addresses that I can find on
my own. For example, I've visited several big anime company web sites
(e.g., Pioneer, Bandai) and I already have their contact information.
In general, they don't want to deal with small enterprises, so I'm
expanding my search.

I'm mainly interested in auctioning anime and / or selling it via a
web site, if that is useful to know. I'm interested in most types of
anime, but especially the more popular titles (e.g., Cowboy Bebop,
Trigun, Hellsing, etc.). I'm looking for at least 2, but certainly
more wholesalers if possible (I want to be able to compare prices
between wholesalers).

In short, I need a solid list of reputable anime wholesalers. I want
to sell at retail but I need anime at a fair price, from a good
wholesaler. If you can find quality ratings, feedback, or related
information about the wholesaler, that would be excellent.

Hello Webword. During my research I found a number of other people
posting messages in forums that were having similar problems as
yourself. Some of the contact information listed below came from
replies to these postings. Others came from various directories, web
searches etc. It was tough even coming up with these! All of them are
listed as wholesalers and as much as possible I have tried to screen
out those who only sell in very large quantities. I did not personally
contact each company to see if they meet your requirements, but I am
sure that some of these companies will be able to meet your needs.

Good luck with your business venture!

Some of the wholesalers listed in the answer deal in bootlegged
merchandise. Caveat Emptor.
