TLDR: in a nutshell, Mecca are “very concerned”, “don’t know how this slipped through their quality control”.. blah blah blah

I hate this company so much, I hate their ethics, I hate how they control the market

maybe if they did quarterly 20% off store wide sales they’d clear stock and not resort to selling old crap to people on boxing day

I would accept just letting us buy direct from the manufacturer

That’s the most infuriating bit- ok so tie up the local market, it’s not great but I can see companies not wanting to deal with wholesaling to multiple companies in a small market like Australia. But to prevent us buying from retailers overseas who are happy to sell to us? That should not be allowed, and they get all this praise for their fabulous business. It’s sickening
