How is a small business supposed to work with these rules? The local newsagent or hobby shop wouldn't sell 3 cases or more of every series and $10,00 worth of stock every year.
tak35bne, Card Zone and JHL basically are the same. They both trade out of the same premises by the same person. He is selling the wholesale product in his store at retail price and locking smaller businesses out of the market. It's anti-competitive practices whichever way you look at it.
Feel tough now? Maybe go do some flexes and push ups in front of a mirror to be on the safe side.Oh and Owen, I will be coming down to Newcastle in August, if there is anything you want me to repeat face to face then not a problem my friend.

Actually, the main point is to make money. Treating the customer well can certainly help this, but at the end of the day the amount of profit made is obviously the goal.
It is not crap. I agree with most of what Owen wrote. I emailed JHL several times after speaking to Select. Rang JHL several times and then to be told I have to purchase $3500 worth of series 1 to access series 2 AFL is crap. Its bad business or smart for him but bad for the hobby.

Everyone is forgetting Series 2 is a limited release of 300 cases & I'm sure all the distributors never get as many cases as they want or could sell.
They support all products that are released year in year out & should be protected by Select & JHL for their loyalty. If Select or JHL were to sell to every Tom Dick or Harry who only wants to sell a few boxes or cases at markets of their PREMIUM product, they would be doing a disservice to the loyal resellers. In all industries regardless of what you sell a limited product is only available to the customers who spend big $$$ with them not to the small customers who only want the premium product at lowest price. Those buyer have to go to their opposition (reseller who gets stock) to get that product. It's called looking after your best customers, If you want to play with the big boys you have to prove yourself first & also spend & invest $$$ like they have done for years.To many flyby nighters have devalued products by dumping them when the going gets tuff.
Brett, What price have you been quoted??
Never got quoted a price after weeks of emails and calls. Going to have a chat to someone in Adelaide later this week. Who like George said above is a reseller if I can get a good enough deal so I can pass on to my customers. Why's that Eddy or Justin?
