When I was reselling computers I did something similar. I would wait until I had a sale before getting the product from my distributors. I would always check inventory with them before making the deal. Saved me from carrying items that were going down in price as overhead. However, I would NEVER sell something I could not get and I worked on a 30 day billing cycle.
