If a brand doesn't want their brands value tarnished isn't their right to not want their items to go on sale?
I used to work for a high end swiss watch company many years ago, they had a similar policy. If we caught retailers discounting the watches, they would get a warning, and if caught again would lose the distribution rights.
Notice how a lot of high end company's are opening under there own banner, Tag, Swarovski etc.
Its supposed to help these brands keep the value of there products. Not sure if its completely legal though, as Hot Toys have just found out.
Yes. Manufacturers can say that their product can only be set at MSRP because they don’t want to devalue their product — the problem comes into play when they allow some retailers to allow discounts, and others cannot. Clearly there was an underlying issue that the article didn’t address in its very brief and vague description — maybe they aren’t allowed to say what the exact issue was, or they have really lazy journalists. My wife’s company sells Under Armour and Columbia clothing, both of which set their prices to exact MSRP so as not to diminish the Brand
"since Disney"?since Disney, Star Wars has really tanked.
Unless your amazon who just laughs and does it anyway.
Mezco does the same thing with their One:12 line. A retailer breaking the minimum advertised price policy risks not being able to purchase from mezco. Unless your amazon who just laughs and does it anyway.
Who is in for a 90's style class action lawsuit against the music industry? I'll be expecting my check for 58 cents to come in the mail in 2024.
