What is a "true" wholesale rate? Isn't that a bit like asking, "Which
major stores offer Old Spice at a true retail rate?" (i.e. a retail
rate I'd like to pay)
Seems straightforward enough of a term for me. Telephone numbers
themselves don't have an actual cost, and in fact generate revenue for
the LEC. Places that charge for example $10 a number are not wholesale
rates. Places that cover a reasonable cost for LNP fees, cost recovery
for maintenance/carrying cost/billing, a reasonable profit and expect
you to know what you're doing. A true wholesale rate would be something
you could make a reasonable profit with selling retail services to end
users with.

The cost <http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/cost.html> of a
good sold by a wholesaler
<http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/wholesaler.html>. The
wholesaler will usually charge
<http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/charge.html> a price
<http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/labor-rate-price-variance.html>
somewhat higher than he or she paid to the producer

who purchases
