Lawyer moms, can a store limit how many items of their stock their customer buys? I.e., if I want to buy 10 of their handbags, are they allowed to say I can only buy 3 of them? Or is this discrimination? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

Anyone buying 10 handbags is probably a reseller. They don’t want to sell to a reseller. [ Reply | More ]

Does the store's name have "wholesale" in it somewhere. If not, they can limit. Wholesalers can probably even limit if they choose. [ Reply | More ]

Yes, they can and do this. It happens a lot with Asian shoppers buying up a ton of product and bringing it back to China to re-sell. My mother used to LOVE when they would come into her store and she'd get a huge commission, but eventually her company started putting limits on quantities. [ Reply | More ]

Well, they can't say white women can buy as many as they want and people of color can only buy 3. That would be discrimination. But otherwise, of course they can. [ Reply | More ]

Yup. They are allowed. I can't think of how a limit on the number of items purchased could be protected, as long as they were not discriminating in blocking you from buying anything. [ Reply | More ]

discrimination relates to race, age, gender, disability, religion, national origin, sexual orientation...NOT handbag resellers. [ Reply | More ]
