[QUOTE="jcoop, post: 504604, member: 13125"] [COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Price fixing and MAP are different but usually used in conjunction with each other. Many companies use map and many more us map with an understanding that if you sale below map, advertised or not you will not receive product or your fill rates will be so bad it is not worth trying to stock them (Usualy you will be the last to recieve your product). Other dealers usually are the ones policing this, and manufactures get phone calls quite often from other dealers tattling on someone’s discounted pricing. I have worked in the sporting goods industry for a while, in retail, as a rep, and now for a manufacturer and this is the norm if you are buying a product from the manufacturer and not a distributor.
