ERP/WBS/JKL all the same?

[IronCircuit]

I’ve come to the conclusion that these three are either the same company or sourcing from the same place.

Their warehouses seem to share the same products, at the same time with the same pricing.

Anyone else notice this, or find any other vendors with such similarities.

Time to order the same thing from each and see whatcha get, where it comes from, etc. One thing is certain, even the US resellers are often in bed with each other. A look at the COA's and who paid for them indicates that.

i had the same conclusion. But interestingly, it's impossible to make deal with them, JKL had 2 $ less than ERP for the same thing, i asked ERP if they can make the same price or better and they just say no... so I gone with JKL. I was so confused. losing a sell for 2 $ dont seem to me like good business but if they are the same company, they still received my money.

Different salesmen/distributors for same importer 🤷 the same in pretty much every industry.

Somebody shared that graphic recently, here on forum. Think it says it all

Why would it matter either way?

If you trust or distrust one it gives you reason to feel the same way about the other. If ERP is having an Endo issue, I will avoid ordering the same thing form WBS. 3rd party COAs have more power if you can compare them across vendors. A COA is a snapshot but 10 snapshots is a pattern. Not definitive but more powerful.

I dont know about JKL but ERP and WBS are the same supply chain, that seems pretty well agreed upon. I like WBS customer service better so I prefer to order from them but I did just try ERPs new web site and it went very smoothly.
