    There’s a lot more to why than just not wanting to traditionally. Just saying that people don’t realize not everyone wants to do business straight with the customer. The professional business to business world is much different and often a lot more efficient since everyone knows what and how to ask for something, customers don’t.

        The US has draconian laws around that and I don’t see the manufacturers lobbying to change it. Probably means they don’t want to.
