Looking for help in marketing/distributing

Hi All,
I was hoping to learn of any Online or Brick & Mortar RPG/Book Stores that fellow Small Indie publishers have been able to use in the past (exceptions being RPGNow, RPGMall and SVGames) without having to go through a distributor to get the stores to carry your product. It seems to me that the profit margin on POD products is already small, and taking huge discounts for distributors, who in turn pass along the product to merchants at a discount gobbles up what little profit there is. Have any of you found any stores willing to buy direct from the small publisher, and if so, would you be willing to share who/when/how??? Thanks in advance for any help.
