This dropped in my inbox earlier today:
ENGLISH:
Dear customers, companies, competitors and friends.
We were confronted in the last time often with the question which problem
between Solebox and Nike is existing.
Our Answer:
Nothing. Everything is alright from our side.
It seems, that somebody at Nike Germany have a problem with Solebox.
The reason seems to be that we do not want to do without the other companies
on the market.
The first feedback from this person was to exclude us from the Limited
Editions distribution.
After asking why and some argumentation on both sides, the final result
ended in a total sanction of Nike products in form of delivery delay/stop
for all Nike items we ordered.
As Sneaker Lovers we do not want to miss any of these brands in our
portfolio like: Adidas, Asics, Lacoste, New Balance, Puma, Reebok, Onitsuka
Tiger, Vans and others.
Especially we do not like to be forced to this.
Even sanctifying us in form of suspension of deliveries and hindrance of
using the business portal Nike.net will not change this.
This behaviour is more than questionable.
And we are sure, it is NOT in the interest of Nike, but rather maybe the
subjective acting of one person.
It is a total misuse and unprofessional acting of the position held.
We are sure, that Nike is never afraid of any competition.
Competition is a constructive factor of the whole market.
Thank you all for your understanding, that we will not pass on any brands.
Even if we would love to still sell Nikes.
Your Solebox Team
GERMAN:
Liebe Kunden, Firmen, Mitbewerber und Freunde.
Wir mussten uns in der letzten Zeit oft der Frage stellen, was mit Solebox
und Nike los ist.
Unsere Antwort:
Alles ist von Seiten Solebox in Ordnung.
Scheinbar hat jemand bei Nike Deutschland ein Problem mit Solebox.
Der Grund liegt wahrscheinlich darin, dass wir nicht auf andere Marken
verzichten wollen.
Als erste Resonanz dieser Person wurde Solebox aus der Distribution für
limitierte Styles gestrichen.
Nach Gesprächen und Nachfragen über dieses Verhalten wurde uns dann gänzlich
die Auslieferung zu allen Nike Produkten gestoppt und/oder verzögert mit
Verweis auf diese Person.
Als Turnschuh Liebhaber möchten wir nicht auf Adidas, Asics, Lacoste, New
Balance, Puma, Reebok, Onitsuka Tiger, Vans oder andere verzichten.
Erst recht werden wir uns nicht dazu zwingen lassen!
Auch Sanktionen in Form von Lieferverzögerung/Lieferstopp und auch
Verwehrung jeglicher Zugänge zum Business Portal Nike.net werden daran
nichts ändern.
Das Verhalten ist mehr als fragwürdig.
Und wir sind uns sicher, dass das nicht im Interesse von Nike ist, sondern
nur ein subjektives Handeln eines Einzelnen sein kann.
Es ist der totale Missbrauch der Position und ein unprofessionelles Handeln.
Wir sind uns sicher: Nike scheut niemals den Wettbewerb mit anderen Firmen.
Wettbewerb ist als ein konstruktiver Faktor des Marktes zu sehen.
Wir danken allen Kunden für ihr Verständnis, dass wir nicht auf andere
Marken verzichten werden, auch wenn wir gerne Nike bei Solebox verkaufen
würden.
Euer Solebox Team
