I'm due for a server refresh next year, two servers.  HP and CDW may be in my 
server.  My rep always treats me right, even though I don't throw a whole lot 
his way.
I also have a relationship with a Dell reseller.  I started pursuing that path 
last night, but got side tracked when my rep called me to make amends and work 
through the order.  Unforunately, at the ordering process, she left off a 
computer, even though she had read all the quotes back to me.  She passed it 
off as an additional $560 in savings that she got for me.  When I got the order 
confirmation, it wasn't there.  So, I ordered it, through her again, because 
the price was lower than the Premier site.  When I got that order confirmation 
the shipping was NBD, and not the 3-5 way.
I sure hope for everyone else who has her as a rep that she had concentrated 
all her mistakes on my account.
Once I get the equipment, I'm probably done, certainly with her, if not Dell.

started using CDW.

They were instantly accommodating to any email requests :)

Dell's premier site is less than optimal but if I email our rep, she replies 
with directions to go to the premier site and quote the item.  round and round 
and round.

My sales reps are faster than the premier site (I avoid that site at all costs, 
like I ranted about earlier).
Many times I'll just email them the part numbers and tell them to quote/order 
it.

And like others said, I get great deals from working with reps.  ESPECIALLY if 
it's near the end of the quarter for them.  We actually track this and time 
many of our purchases around it.

  FWIW, if you're using Dell, a Premier website account, E-Quotes and direct 
purchasing (enter your PO# to buy E-Quote) basically eliminate the sales rep 
from the equation.  Standard Configurations can mean you only build your 
configs once.

  I hold the belief that generally all vendors and contractors are basically 
incompetent, so eliminating a human from the process is usually a win.
