Looking for suppliers of items that can be engraved. Has anyone found ASI or Alibaba particularly useful in sourcing items? Is the ASI membership worth it?

Are you looking for wholesale for a business or home hobbyist. You can get engravable material anywhere and most things can be engraved. Just do a google search as suppliers are to numerous to list, but the subject has come up here many times , search the forum in the search bar.

Looking for wholesale. Mainly seeing if anyone had particular success with ASI to find business suppliers. Thanks!

ASI and/or PPAI are really for items that are already embellished. You can buy blanks from most suppliers but the pricing wont really be wholesale.
JDS, MARCO, and Laserbits are just a few options out there.

Unless your goal is to get into the promotional products business ASI and PPAI are not what you need. The suppliers mentioned by Chris are wholesalers. JDS and Marco probably won't sell to you unless you have a re-sellers license.
