MY BUSINESS ENTAILS BUYING AUCTIONED BOOKS FROM A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION EVERYDAY. IT HAS BEEN ON-GOING FOR 2 YEARS NOW AND OUR COLLEAGUES WHO ALSO BUYS FROM THE SAME ORGANIZATION HAD BEEN PATRONIZING THEM LONGER THAN WE DO.
EARLY THIS WEEK, THE AUCTION WAS STOPPED WITHOUT ANY WARNING AND WE WE'RE JUST TOLD THAT BULK BOOK SALES HAD BEEN AWARDED TO A PARTICULAR GROUP WHO WILL INSTEAD BUY THEM ON A MONTHLY BASIS AT A SET PRICE.
THE THING THAT BOTHERED US MOST IS THAT WE FIND IT VERY VERY UNETHICAL FOR THIS ORGANIZATION NOT TO HAVE INFORMED US EARLIER OF THE NEW SET-UP AND NOT EVEN CONSIDERING OUR GROUP FOR THIS CONTRACT SALE. WE WERE THEIR PATRONS FOR A LONG TIME AND WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN GAVE THE CONTRACT TO SOME OUTSIDERS WHO HAD NEVER DONE BUSINESS WITH THEM BEFORE. WE FELT INSULTED IN THEIR ACT AS IF WE DON'T HAVE THE MONEY FOR THEM TO GIVE US A CHANCE TO OFFER IN THAT SALE.
MOST OF US ARE SMALL BOOKSTORE OWNERS AND ARE NOW SUFFERING A DAILY LOSS OF SALE BECAUSE OF THIS INCIDENT. OUR LIVELIHOOD IS REALLY BADLY AFFECTED.
I WOULD APPRECIATE IF SOMEONE WOULD BE ABLE TO ADVISE ME, IF WE HAVE GROUNDS TO SUE ON THIS BASIS.
THANK YOU.
