I work at a shop here in NC and we are King dealers. A fellow shoprat does hella good wheel building. In fact, he's starting on an ISO disc set for me today. Send me an email @ superlight@carolina.rr.com if you are interested in the hookup...

...CK dealership is not an exclusive like selling Treks or Konas.

Though as Crazy Mike points out below, some dealers get better supplies than others.

Yeah, I know. I just called them up a few months ago and said I wanted to sell their product and they said no problem. They're actually pretty cool people with an awesome product. They've done well at maintaining interest in their products by keeping production runs low...I don't have a problem with that but when a customer wants a specific color and they find out they have to wait 4-6 weeks to get it, it's kinda discouraging and they tend to look for other substitutes(if there is any). I was making the offer to the gentleman looking for a wheelset to simply get him a good deal on what I could get. QBP has actually had black King hubs in stock for at least a month now...
But not every shop pulls the same weight as WebCyclerycrazy mike

The shops that order more parts more frequently seem to get priority. The web boys have quite the report established with Chris King. I've seen them get CK stuff when CK was two months behind!

He built me a CK SS wheel set, regular SS hubs, and they are amazing. I have 2 sets of wheels built by him, I see no reason to go to anyone else.
