CDW is weird like that.  I bought APC full shelves for an off-size 4  
post rack from them last year for $29.95 each.  They were way under  
list price and about 1/4 the price i could find from a competitor  
( the office manager wanted the name brand ).

I think CDW does this:
	mark something up to 200% msrp
	sell as much as you can
	any inventory that sits around for more than 3 years gets clearanced  
at cost .

anyways, whenever i need something random i tend to check here:

found them through pricewatch a few years ago w/the best prices on a  
lot of really random items ( and awful prices on some not so-random  
items ).  but their stock changes a lot , and every so often they'll  
have something like 1,000' cases of cat5e cables in stranded or solid  
for $35 including shipping or a rack system for 1/3 the msrp.
