Ok guys, I have an update for you.
After much beating around the bush and discussion behind closed doors, BHJ has decided that it is in their best interest not to sell their dampers to me. While I had fulfilled all the requirements for warehouse distributorship through my company SuperCoupes Unlimited Inc and they officially have no position or restrictions regarding marketing or pricing of their products, they have simply decided that they will NOT sell their dampers to me.
The reason they gave is that our current SC vendors would be unnecessarily damaged by the introduction of another "vendor" of their products. It seems that they feel that SpinningWheels SC, Supercoupe Performance, and Blue Tongue Motorsports are enough vendors for our small community.
Now while I do not disagree with that stance in theory, I had to ask why it was that I was offered the "WD" program in the first place? I made it clear who I was and why I wanted to offer BHJ products. That's when it came out that one of the aforementioned vendors had contacted BHJ about this group purchase and complained that I was undercutting them and they felt that if they allowed my small purchase to go through it could threaten the larger purchases that this "other" vendor makes which apparently crosses into other product lines than just Supercoupes.
So there it is folks, BHJ has officially refused to allow this group purchase to be completed.
