A guy I met at one of the PV installer courses I took recommended this site for any bulk PV purchases ...
Link ... I think their lowest right now for a full container is ~$0.57 / Watt ... I'm sure there are other similar bulk distributors out there too ... he said he always bought full pallet loads from them ... and then he would design individual customer's orders around the panels he had in stock at the time.
It's not something the average person can do ... outside of maybe some type of organized group buy ... Dropping ~$20k or so on a full pallet or container of PV panels ... but if you can afford the initial up front cost for buying full pallet loads at a time ... you can get the $/Watt significantly down.
