I first bought a Gold Vendor Package( about $250.00), which included some of RTPR's various products, in order to obtain about a 10% discount for their products.  Within a week or so after purchasing the Gold package, I upgraded to the Platinum Vendor Package for $500.00, in order to get about a 20% discount on their products.

I just recently heard about their new program, called the "Sampler" program, so I went into the company provided Webste to gain more information about the program.  I didn't see any info there about it, but I did notice that the site said that my status as a vendor was pending.

Thereafter, I sent the company an e-mail asking what my staus was, and they respondedwith the following e-mail,

"On December 2015 our system changed. Since then purchases before December 2015 are no longer viewable on the system.

On our end we can see you purchased the Gold Kit on 2013 and upgraded but for you to keep Vendor Status you needed to keep at least 250MSP a year.

At the moment you have a Pending Wholesale Panel. This means you were once able to purchase from our wholesale shop but do to inactivity you lost your status. You still have access to our Retail Shop and to both of our kits that will upgrade your status to Vendor (Gold or Platinum, depending on which you choose).

Hope this clears your doubts."

I responded to their e-mail with the following email, "I DO NOT accept the RTPR policy that I have to buy $250.00/year to keep my Platinum vendor status.  I bought over $500.00 to obtain my platinum status and that is a significant amount of money.  Therefore, I feel like I have been scammed and ripped off.  Accordingly, I will be reporting this business behavior to online Websites that track and report bad or questionable business behavior.

 
Respectfully submitted,
 
J
 
I have lost over $500.00 of wholesale purchasing benefits and told I needed to buy another expensive Vendor package due to an arbitrary rule or policy, which amounts to a rip-off business practice.

RTPR Company policy embodies fraud

AUTHOR: - ()

POSTED: Monday, February 20, 2017

Real Tme Pain Relief's policy as set forth in the original complaint and as applied constitutes FRAUD.

The Response By "Stop Whinning" to exuse it as simply as "the way it is" does not negate it as FRAUD.

Once paying over $500 - $750 to acquire merely wholesale buying status, should never require another $250.00 annually to maintain.

At a minimum the General Public needs to be on Notice: BUYER BEWARE!

Not clear as to what the problem is

AUTHOR: StopWhining - (USA)

POSTED: Friday, December 16, 2016

You claim you bought the "gold," then the "platinum" kits and now you have no vendor status?

But the emails point out that you bought those kits in 2013 that is:TWO THOUSAND AND THIRTEEN. Now in 2016 you want what what exactly? More product at a cheaper price?

Sorry, but you clearly ARE NOT VENDOR.

At the moment you have a Pending Wholesale Panel. This means you were once able to purchase from our wholesale shop but do to inactivity you lost your status. You still have access to our Retail Shop

Beyond that, you are OUT NOTHING. You recieved product at less than wholesale, and now want more without paying retail. At least that's what it sounds like.

BTW, you can easliy sign up, do the $250, and you're back in "business."

If I'm worng, please clarify.

"I DO NOT accept the RTPR policy that I have to buy $250.00/year to keep my Platinum vendor status

You don't accept it? You can NOT accept it, but that's the way it is.

I have lost over $500.00 of wholesale purchasing benefits

No you have not. You can easily start up the vendor program again.

due to an arbitrary rule or policy

Nothing arbitrary about it. You waited 3 years to buy more, not a vendor.

which amounts to a rip-off business practice

No, it's sound business. You want "vendor costs" without being a vendor. That's the vendor.
