What is an authorized dealer?
Timbren Industries sells most of its products through a network of independent dealers and distributors. These dealers and distributors have been selected because of their ability to represent the true values of Timbren and convey the true value of Timbren products. These dealers and distributors are usually “brick & mortar” companies with a website. There is also a growing number of dealers who sell Timbren’s products online using their virtual store.
Timbren’s authorized dealers and distributors represent the true value of Timbren’s products and services.
What is an unauthorized dealer?
In recent years we have found several internet vendors who falsely claim to be “authorized Timbren vendors,” those who do not provide the level of customer support that is required of Timbren dealers and distributors. Consumers who purchase from unauthorized vendors run the risk of voiding both warranties because Timbren cannot guarantee the authenticity or condition of products sold through unauthorized reseller websites.
While Timbren can’t identify all persons and companies who falsely claim to be authorized vendors, we have been able to identify the following companies who are NOT authorized dealers.
