ITEM 9.  SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES PURSUANT TO REGULATION S.

         On January 10, 1997, CHS Electronics, Inc. (the "Company") issued
183,237 shares (the "Shares") of the Company's common stock to Hugo Wyrsch
("Wyrsch"), an individual and citizen of Switzerland, pursuant to the terms and
conditions of a Stock Purchase Agreement dated March 29, 1996 by and between the
Company and Wyrsch (the "Purchase Agreement"). Pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement, the Shares were issued in exchange for 100% of the outstanding
capital stock of Wyrsch Trading AG, a Swiss corporation owned by Mr. Wyrsch.
Wyrsch Trading AG is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and is
engaged in the wholesale distribution of microcomputers, peripherals and
software products in Switzerland.

         The Shares were issued to Wyrsch pursuant to the exemption from
registration provided by Regulation S. Wyrsch has represented to the Company
that he is not a "U.S. Person" (as defined in Regulation S) and that the Shares
were being acquired for his own account. The Shares were sold outside the United
States in an "offshore transaction" and subject to "offering restrictions" (as
each term is defined in Regulation S), and otherwise in compliance with
Regulation S. The Shares were not issued for cash, and there was no underwriter
or placement agent used in connection with the issuance of the Shares.
