I am a contractor, I build 500,000.00 + custom homes and if a client bought floors from direct buy or any other supplier other than ones I have a good working relationship with I will NOT warranty the work. There is a reason it is cheaper, same as lumber liquidators either they are 2nd's in quality or discontinued, or a lower quality version made for direct buy. Same thing with let's say delta faucet model # 1234 , I can buy that model # at lowes or my plumbing supply house . Same model # but completely different product and price the lowes is cheaper price and quality where the same model # fir the supply house has brass fitting but the lowes has plastic! So if you want to build a cheap house be my guest , direct buy isn't in business to lose $ and give you free stuff they like every business is In it to make money! Cheaper is not better and it is cheaper for a reason in most cases
