[[Staddon vs. Griever]]: [[SvsG:Unanswered Questions|Unanswered Questions]][[Category:SvsG Documents]]
==Regarding the alleged sales agreement==
===Historical questions===
* Where and when was this agreement reached?
* What were the exact terms of the agreement? (See below for more specific questions)
* Why did the Grievers appear to resist my every attempt to set the agreement in writing?
* If my attempts to set it in writing were way off the mark, why didn't either of them reply with corrections to the agreement as they understood it?
===Terms of the agreement===
* What were the mechanics of how the Grievers' 80% share was to be disbursed? (How often? Was any portion to be held back each period in anticipation of possible losses the next period? Was the share to be credited to their debt, disbursed as cash, or a mixture? What was to happen during periods when the net sales gain was negative?)
* What responsibilities did the Grievers take on in exchange for their share of sales?
* What were the details of these responsibilities?
** if they were responsible for placing orders:
*** Within what time-frame were orders to be placed?
*** Were they responsible for producing the list of things to order?
*** Were they responsible for catching errors in the list if it was my responsibility to produce it?
*** Were they responsible for errors they made in relaying the order to the supplier? If so, how?
*** Were they responsible for dealing with errors made by the supplier? If so, how?
** if they were responsible for shipping:
*** Within what time-frame were orders to be shipped after the merchandise was received?
*** Who was to pay for postage?
*** Who was responsible for generating packing lists?
*** Who was responsible for handling items returned by customers?
*** Who was responsible for inventorying excess merchandise?

These questions all relate to things that do happen regularly, that have a negative impact on the bottom line, and from which I would have wanted to protect vbz.net if I were to cede responsibility or authority to any other party in these matters. I also would have wanted purchases of "close-outs" to fall under a different formula, as the up-front investment and profit margin are both substantially higher than regular orders.
==Other matters==
* <s>What is the basis for the Grievers' oft-repeated claim that I owe them money?</s> ''Tentatively, this appears to be based on their legal costs and inconvenience''
* Regarding my [[SvsG:accounting|accounting]] of debt owed by the Grievers to me:
** If it is incorrect, why have they not countered with a list of errors, or an accounting of their own?
** In what particulars is my accounting incorrect?
