This means you get your home tanning bed at a dirt cheap price.
Buyers' market. Watch out for wholesale markets in your city, because they just might feature tanning bed manufacturers. Ask your city hall if the market is open to the public, or if you need to reserve tickets to be able to participate. You may meet representatives of home tanning bad manufacturing companies from attending these buyers' markets and actually get wholesale home tanning beds. They may sell the units to you at a slightly higher price if you only intend to buy two to four units, but you will still find exceptional savings just the same.

Log on to the forums and ask other tanning salon owners where they get their wholesale home tanning beds. You should also join tanning salon-specific email newsgroups so you can get alerts to discussions about wholesale home tanning beds.
The Phonebook. It's amazing that in this age of internet technology, the trusty phonebook still works, Check the business section under ‘tanning beds' and start working the telephone – call the manufacturers (they usually have a customer support hotline ) and ask if you could buy wholesale home tanning beds, what the requirements are, if there are wholesale outlets near you, etc. You may get process that are a little higher than wholesale if you do not meet their minimum order requirements, but these prices will surely still be better than paying retail.
