Anyone here deal with JRL Electric Supply, Inc located in California?

Their price on a GFI circuit breaker is hard to pass up.

PM would be good, unless you have nothing but praise.
In a practical since the major manufactures that i know if have a discount schedule for various levels of customer from user customers direct, commercial, industrials, OEMs, various classes of distributors etc. Distributors for the most part are fairly locked is on their costs for the product of their profit margins in order to stay in business.
With this in mind either their purchase price of the product was not lagitimate such as from the he black market, maybe purchased from a bankruptcy such as a business under, counterfeit product or selling at less that what has been agreed to with the contract that they have with the manufacturer as a distributor of their product.
You may have to decide if the prices are in fact lagitimate, is the product backed by the manufacturer's warranty, and if you do purchase from them what is your liability and if it is the moral thing to do.

well, it seems they aren't fettered with sales agreements....

there's enough fake stuff circulating with regards to breakers and such...
what thing are you looking for specifically? i'll find out what the cost is
from a wholesale house i trust.... and then we can see if the number they
use is above or below that.

well, it seems to be an internet reseller, largely. it's kind of on the far
edge of the san fernando valley, near magic mountain. if it was me, i think
i'd pass.

Is there anybody that they left off that list , that sells electrical equipment ? I don't think so. What are they selling then ? Imported counterfeit, or used equipment ?
