TW,
Instead of meekly bending over and allowing the brands to dictate to whom you may sell/ship, why can't you assert to them that International markets are poorly served by the local distributors of those brands and do not carry many of the items found on TW USA. International customers want to buy from you because they can't get their desired products locally. Local distributors don't give a damn, so why don't you take the opportunities to increase sales, leverage your retail strength and insist International sales and shipping on those brands be relaxed?
