Steps
Open a wholesale distributor account (e.g., with Marcone) selecting the appropriate business category such as Appliance Repair
Use the distributor's online parts lookup by model number or exploded parts diagram to identify the exact OEM part needed for a given appliance
Cross-reference the part number against the appliance's brand and model to confirm compatibility before ordering
Check stock/availability and lead time through the distributor portal, and compare across more than one distributor account if a part is backordered
Maintain accurate records of parts ordered per job for warranty-claim documentation and customer invoicing
Known gotchas
Different distributors (Marcone, Encompass, Reliable Parts, etc.) carry different manufacturer authorizations and stock levels for the same brand — a part unavailable at one may be in stock at another
Using a non-OEM or generic part where the manufacturer specifies an exact OEM component can void warranty coverage or safety compliance (relevant to component standards like UL 60335) — verify OEM-specified parts, especially for safety-critical components
Wholesale accounts typically require proof of business registration/licensing to open — a hobbyist or unlicensed individual may not qualify for a trade account
