For retailers who are planning to do business with wholesalers and distributors of home entertainment media and equipment, it is vital to understand the key terms used before signing a contract. There are key terms for the different kinds of services offered by home entertainment distributors and wholesalers as well as for the equipment installed, so you will need to know these to make doing business productive and successful. Learn the key terms for home entertainment distributors and wholesalers to inform yourself about the services they provide to businesses.

Drop shipping

Drop shipping is when retailers don't keep merchandise in stock, but have it stored to be distributed by manufacturers or wholesalers. Customer orders are processed and transferred to a distributor who then ships the products directly to the customer. Many retailers do business with home entertainment distributors and wholesalers this way to save money and storage space.

Refurbished or reconditioned

Refurbished or reconditioned refers to products that have been repaired, renovated or renewed so they can be resold. Many home entertainment distributors and wholesalers specialize in selling refurbished and reconditioned equipment. Refurbished and reconditioned offerings allow consumers the ability to purchase quality merchandise at affordable prices.

DVD region codes

DVD region codes are encoded, restricting users from different parts of the world from playing DVDs. Home entertainment distributors and manufacturers have to know these codes before buying or shipping DVDs globally. Motion picture studios use DVD region codes to moderate DVD prices and content globally.

Pre-bundled or bundled

Pre-bundled or bundled refers to home entertainment equipment and media that are sold in packages put together by distributors and manufacturers. Pre-bundled media includes DVDs by certain movie stars or sold by theme. Many home entertainment distributors and manufacturers also sell bundles of equipment, too.

Business to business or B2B
