Seek Scan Reseller Guidelines
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THESE AUTHORIZED RESELLER GUIDELINES CAREFULLY AND MAINTAIN A COPY FOR YOUR RECORDS.
- Minimum Advertised Price (MAP)
- Seek Thermal (Seek) has an established Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) Policy that an Authorized Reseller must follow for the advertising and marketing of the Seek Scan™ product. All Seek Authorized Resellers must agree to the terms and conditions of the following MAP Policy.
- The Minimum Advertised Price for the Seek Scan™ product shall be no less than the current Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $1,995.00 USD; This Minimum Advertised Price is established by Seek and may be adjusted by Seek at such time and in such amounts as it may determine at its sole discretion.
- This MAP policy applies to all advertisements of Seek products in any and all media, including, but not limited to flyers, posters, coupons, mailers, inserts, newspapers, magazines, catalogs, mail order catalogs, email newsletters, email solicitations, internet or other electronic media, television, radio, and public signage. This MAP policy is not applicable to any in-store advertising that is displayed only in the store and not distributed to any customers.
- The inclusion in advertising of free or discounted products, with a product covered by this MAP policy, would be contrary to the MAP policy if it has the effect of discounting the advertised price of the covered product below the Minimum Advertised Price.
- If pricing is displayed anywhere other than a brick-and-mortar-retail store, any strike-through or other alteration of the Minimum Advertised Price is prohibited.
- Seek maintains the right to run a temporary sale at its discretion, and in such case, the Minimum Advertised Price will be the same as the temporary sale price on those particular items for that particular time period.
- If an Authorized Reseller with multiple store locations violates this MAP policy at any one store location, or on any associated website, then Seek will consider this to be a violation of this MAP policy by the Authorized Reseller.
- Failure to comply with MAP, intentional and/or repeated failure to abide, will result in the immediate loss of Authorized Reseller status and your ability to purchase any Seek products through distribution.
- Sales Channel Limits. Selling Seek products on your own website associated directly with your store(s) is permissible so long as this MAP policy is adhered to, with prior written consent from Seek. You shall not list Seek Scan™ products on any third-party website, internet auction websites or classified advertising websites as defined by Seek, including, but without limitation, amazon, overstock, alibaba, slickdeals, ebay, ubid, craigslist, gsaauctions.gov, etc.
- Sales Region Limits. Authorized Resellers are permitted to sell in the USA. International sales are only permitted with prior written approval from Seek.
- Availability. The availability and lead time of the Products may change at any time.
- Authorized Reseller. Seek appoints the Authorized Reseller as a non-exclusive Authorized Reseller to purchase, inventory, promote and resell the Products to end users and the Authorized Reseller accepts this appointment. The Authorized Reseller will buy and sell the Products in its own name, for its own account, and at its own risk, whether directly from Seek, its affiliate, or its designee. This Agreement does not obligate Seek, its affiliates or its designees to sell any Products to the Authorized Reseller except pursuant to accepted purchase orders. This Agreement shall become effective only upon its execution by the Authorized Reseller submitting their application form to Seek Thermal, and Seek Thermal approving the application.
- Prohibited Practices.
