Title: Ebay
Post by: gotsong on August 12, 2005, 12:13:59 AM
Hello,

I am a potential new reseller. I was very
excited to see that you had a reseller
program in place. I was conducting my own
research on Ebay and it looks as if your
products are being marketed there by X10 at
the same discount price you are offering
your resellers. Here is the URL-->

System-99-BIN-Protector-
Plus_W0QQitemZ5992537421QQcategoryZ20589QQrdZ

If this is happening, how do you expect to
give value to your reseller? If I am missing
something please enlighten me. I would hate
to miss out on an opportunity.

I do see how I could make $75 on every $500
I invest but I do not like that risk. I
would not want to keep that much product on
hand. I am looking to keep zero inventory if
possible and ship directly from your
location. My value that I add is that I am a
Microsoft Certified Software Solutions
Developer and could develop custom solutions
to interface with your products. Please
advise on how I could best embrace this
opportunity to do business with X10.

Best Regards,
James E. Davis
