Great place to get SFP+ cables for whatever switch you need. Plus about 1/2 the price as OEM.

It's nice of you to support the middle man. Good when you need support.
I like to buy from FS because they are the manufacturer.

Tinfoil?
The difference is that manufacturers knows why you didn't get your shipment while the distributor has to call the manufacturer and find out.

No the distributor needs to fix the issue as to why the items didn't arrive. The reason doesn't matter to the distributor. Only do you care why an item didn't arrive, rather than knowing the issue is getting fixed.

But if you're only ordering one patch cable then there is no point ordering from a manufacturer.

1 or 1 million, it doesn't matter. The distribution network is what Jared is looking to leverage, rather than having to call each part of the order chain and figure out where something is. Just call your Dist. Manager and they get the issue resolved for you.
