Do we all agree, dear reader, there's a distinction between distributor and you selling your used kitchen tools?
If you, dear reader, had a sole distributor agreement with an OEM would you do what you could to protect your reputation and the brand?
- powersnail 5y agoGenuine question: what is the distinction between a consumer and a distributor in the context of rights of selling an item that they own? Which law prohibits the distributor from selling thermometers that they own? How come an agreement between ETI and Thermoworks have any legal power over anybody else?
- jjeaff 5y agoIt doesn't. If you don't have a contract with pricing stipulations, then you have no obligation to sell at MSRP or MAP.
- mike_d 5y agoAn exclusive distributor agreement usually means within a given territory, only a single party may buy product from the manufacturer or buy at below MSRP (depending on the agreement). This is not enforced by law, but by a contractual agreement. You can always buy the product at retail, from another country, or directly from the manufacturer (if they will sell to you) and sell the product at retail.
