Hallo Gemeinde!
So wie's aussieht, geht gerade nochmal ein Türchen auf, an dem ich Euch teilhaben lassen möchte. Ich habe nach meinen Bestellungen bei St.Paul Harley folgende Mail erhalten, die nichts anderes bedeutet, daß St.Paul sich baw nicht! An das "Exportverbot" hält..
Dear Dirk Ortwein,
You are receiving this e-mail from me today as you have previously purchased from St. Paul Harley-Davidson® online. As some of you may have heard, the Harley-Davidson Motor Company has changed their policies regarding U.S. dealers and their ability to provide products to the international community. To best address this, I have included a statement from Tom Giannetti, President and CEO of St. Paul Harley-Davidson.
“I am sorry to confirm that Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) announced a new policy to the dealer network that as of 8/1/11, it will consider sales by domestic H-D® dealers of any genuine product to ANY individuals or dealers outside the U.S. to be non-retail salesand a violation of their dealer contract. HDMC also announced a policy prohibiting dealers from listing or selling current genuine product on third party websites (e.g., e-bay, Amazon, etc.) effective 1/1/12. HDMC will also consider a dealer's own website a third party site, if not approved by HDMC. Our own shopping site,
www.stpaulharley.com, has been approved by HDMC.
These new policies are highly controversial and may be arguable.We certainly do not feel it is fair when we've spent years building a customer service oriented business to promote the brand worldwide.
For the time being, St. Paul Harley-Davidson® will continue selling and shipping our products overseas; however, this policy could change at any time without further notice. Because this situation is so tentative, we urge all of our overseas customers to place orders without delay. We look forward to serving you.”
As you can see, we are continuing to offer international purchasing and shipping on genuine Harley-Davidson® apparel, parts and accessories for now; however, we do not know for how long. We will continue to update you as new information becomes available.
As a previous customer, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your business and tell you it is always appreciated. As a token of this appreciation, I would like to extend you a discount of 5% off your entire next purchase on
www.stpaulharley.com by using coupon code Euro2011.
Thank you again for choosing St. Paul Harley-Davidson® for your Harley-Davidson® apparel, parts and accessory needs.
Best regards,
Chris Law
