Honoring that agreement means that INTERNET any NON-IN-PERSON sales are prohibited.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Unfortunately, the manner our web-page provider has things set-up it gives the APPEARANCE of allowing sales of these items over the internet. ALL of the items in question have the "ADD TO CART" button deactivated and the follo<span class="text_exposed_show">wing message appears in its place:</span></span></p> <div class="text_exposed_show"> <p><em><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: #d0131a;">"This item is not available for purchase online.</span></em></p> <p><em><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: #d0131a;">Please call (812) 275-7400 for more information."</span></em></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Additionally, I have tried to include the additional statement of:</span></p> <p><br /><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: rgb(208, 19, 26);">"<em>Per licensing agreements with SVP, Machines CANNOT be SOLD over the Internet, They must be, "In Person" sales."</em></span> </span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">in the description of said items.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><br />We are working with council to develop a statement that might make it even clearer that sales WILL NOT be made over the internet in violation of dealer agreements. [If such statement is missing on any item that is an oversight and will be corrected as quickly as discovered].</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">We are also working with our web-page provider to change the way the program presents the information so it might not be misleading.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">To my fellow dealers out there, I apologize for any distress this has apparently caused.&nbsp;</span><br /><span style="font-size: 14pt;">I can assure you that we have NEVER sold a machine over the internet in violation of the dealer agreement and have in fact referred a number of calls and inquires to closest dealers to said individuals.&nbsp;</span><br /><span style="font-size: 14pt;">I have also offered my sales records to inspection of my region sales manager and anyone UP the H-V hierarchy for inspection to confirm this statement. We have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to HIDE.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">IF You have questions about the above.
