Bill Hicks Co — live catalog on Project Parabellum

Bill Hicks & Co. runs a broad catalog that Project Parabellum polls over a dealer API on an automated schedule. Breadth here is a matter of assortment width rather than depth in any one line, so on this hub it shows up as a distributor that has something to say about a lot of different searches. Whether that is worth an account depends on how many narrower distributors you would otherwise be reconciling by hand.

Catalog and stock counts below come from an automated sync into a shared vocabulary, which is what lets the same UPC be compared across distributors elsewhere on this site.

What Bill Hicks Co lists most of

Bill Hicks Co describes its catalog in its own words, and we resolve those descriptions against one shared vocabulary before counting. A category below therefore means the same thing here as it does on every other distributor’s page. Counts are active listings.

The list stops at Bill Hicks Co’s eight largest categories. A category missing from it is one we have not counted here, not one Bill Hicks Co does not carry.

“At Bill Hicks Co only” is read one row at a time: it counts UPCs Bill Hicks Co lists and the distributor in that row does not. The figures do not add up across rows, and none of them is a count of what only Bill Hicks Co carries anywhere — that would need every distributor weighed against every other at once, which these pairwise numbers cannot do.
