What I said was that where the guys with the really big orders purchase
from is highly significant. I don't see anything much wrong with that.

These guys are serious players, with a big budget and big
responsibilities. They are not going to waste their hard won cash on the
products of a lesser breeder. In some cases they have experience over
many years of just who provides good reliable queens, and who does not.

I am interested in this as it is just about the best reference you can
get when seeking a breeder to supply you.

As for the 35,000? Just a number that was quoted to me, and I was keen
to find out just where such numbers could be obtained. No-one with that
kind of demand actually threw their number on the table as you state.
