    Government Action: BBB reports on known government actions involving business’ marketplace conduct:
    Federal Trade Commission vs. Staples, Inc.

    The following describes a government action that has been resolved by either a settlement or a decision by a court or administrative agency. If the matter is being appealed, it will be noted below.

    On 1/29/2019 the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announced it had reached a settlement with Staples, Inc. regarding its merger with another business.  The FTC alleged that Staples competes with the other business to sell office supplies to mid-sized business customers. As a result of the acquisition, Staples would have access to commercially sensitive business information on the other business' reseller customers, and those resellers’ end customers, which could allow Staples to offer higher prices than it otherwise would when bidding against a reseller for an end customer’s business.

    As part of the settlement, Staples will establish a firewall separating Staples’ business-to-business sales operations from the other business' wholesale business.

      Warn minority people who goes to Staples at ***********************.On Nov. 13th. The store manager *** saw me (a minority) enter the store because he just finished helping another customer outside.I know what I exactly want to buy. It is not on the floor but fortunately I saw it on the top shelf.Then I asked *** to help to take it down. Surprisingly, the first word said from him is "I don't sell to reseller".I never saw him and he never saw me before. Without knowing anything from me, he directly judges people based on skin color and shows such rudeness and arrogance.I have a decent job and have Ph.D ******* I have never been treated like this in the big company I am working in.I won't go there anymore and will fight in various ways to help improve the situation, not just for myself.
