Does anyone have a good list for online retailers for the US?

Looking for full size solar panels and not smaller stuff.

I've found shop.signaturesolar.us and santansolar.com from Will's videos.

Thanks.
 
altestore.com I have bought a few things from them, they have some good options.

I recommend signature for all growatt hardware, and santan for solar panels. If you get damaged panels santan will ship you replacements free of charge.
 
Let us know what you end up buying and the price. Do you know what you want?
 
Look at San Tan Solar, in AZ and opening another store. Decent prices, excellent if you can pick up and avoid freight.

altestore.com
santansolar.com
signaturesolar.com

Personally purchased from the first 3. The first 2 are old timers (in business for at least 10 years).
 
Also check craigslist. I was shocked to see someone not too far from me who must be buying large quantities of panels and sells them by the pallet for very reasonable prices.

Consider finding a local (within an hour or two) dealer if you can. Not having to pay for shipping could be worth the drive depending on how far you need to go.
 
Echoing what rmaddy said above, I went with CEDGreenTech. They have a store local to me. I was happy with the price, got them the same day and they were perfect.
 
Thanks for all the replies.

I'm in the MidWest and don't have any stores nearby that I'm aware of (SignatureSolar might be the closest at a 5 hour drive).

Looking at 400-500 watt panels for a possible future system.

If you order by the pallet then shipping isn't too terrible.. about the price of one of those panels.

There are people local to me who also sell them in small to huge quantities but I think they are all used panels. Seems the solar companies swamp them every few years and these people resell them.

I've purchased many things from alte over the last 3 years - 24 panels, midnite classic 150s, midnite combiner boxes, lightning arrestors. The only downside is they're on East Coast of US I'm on West Coast and shipping for large items such as panels, ironride 14ft rails is an extra couple of hundred. You want to buy freight items as near to you as you can.

I've also purchased 44 used panels from ebay "Santan solar" with good results - https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313&_nkw=santan+solar&_sacat=0 I know that @Will has purchased from them as well per his youtubes.
 
I just called my "local" CED Greentech and they said they don't sell to individuals :( Not sure if each location has different policies or what?

Out of curiosity, which location is that? I know the Orlando, FL (based on a forum user in another thread) and Denver, CO (what I used) locations have no problem selling low volume to individuals.

Go to your local taxing authority, get a certificate, ala, you are a business. I was in MN....easy peasy. Get an EIN from the feds, ala you are a business.
