Buying wholesale/bulk GPUs?

[siforek]

I managed to get 52x 1070 & 1070TIs going in the last couple months. Now I need 55 more & don't want to do what I had to last time to get so many cards. There are distributors that look to be about $10 per GPU but are there any best methods? I know the margins on GPUs isn't much.

I think make a group buy is a good idea. I and some friends (more than 20 people) create a big group buy.
And we sign the contract with big local distributor: each month we will buy at least 50 GPUs (it's harder to collect more now), and he will give us the best price (typically discount about 3-4.5% compared with the lowest price from other distributors).

No siginificant Bulk gpu pricing right now isn't happening below 1000 gpu min order from AMD and Nvidia and gpus are going to previous large customers not typically first time buyers.
