Where to buy a pallet of Instant Ocean salt?

To maximize the savings, I would rather avoid using a middleman.

+1 to seeing the tank.
I would directly contact the company. Says on the instant ocean site to call
1-440-255-1997.

You realize that the sale that Big Als has at christmas for salt.... no retailer can beat. Quality Marine in the states can help you. But really Big Al's sells it close to margin

Didn't even think about this, I would perhaps get in touch with them. I know they put up the "while quantities last" sign, as they need to cut their losses, but you might be able to work something with them too.

Plus calling them direct might work. I know lots of large companies that deal only with retailers will bend if the order is worth it.

Big Al's has a limit of 5 during that boxing day sale.

I'd buy you five pails for a beer

I think the problem is that you probably won't find it at middleman pricing, as if you can, then can everyone else, and then what is to come of the LFS if we can just bypass them on everything.

Good Luck, personally I would go to someone like Kevin @ Red Coral and explain what you want... If I was him, I would rather make 5% on something after all expenses, than nothing... and then you get what you want.

Give that a try.
