We buy directly of Wilflex/Avient. We can order either through their China based manufacturing location or through their US facility. 30% of their standard list price. Even if we ship with FedEx we are still way better of then going through our distributor here in Japan. It does help to have an inside man/woman though to get this kind of a set up. Downside of ordering direct are the long leads times. Especially right now we have been waiting for a month for our order to be ready for shipping.
