Adidas Accuses Wal-Mart of Selling Unsafe, Substandard Athletic Shoes

((((TWEET!))))

Hey, bbrd....here:

As part of a copyright infringement lawsuit...

the same shoes are sold everywhere else including shoe stores and we dont hear crap from you wm haters on that.picking at straws wmw shut up.

I would think that anybody wanting to purchase QUALITY running shoes would NOT GO TO WAL-MART TO BUY THEM. If you want quality in anything you buy--DON’T BUY IT AT WAL-MART.

Jane, does that also go for purchasing the Charmin toilet paper, Pedigree dog food and Clorox bleach when I can purchase them for less money at Walmart than at my local Safeway store?

Jane,
I couldn’t agree more - for most high quality items, I wouldn’t go near a walmart, and I think most people feel the same. So I pose some questions - so what?? why is that a problem?? Don’t most people know that they’re not getting high quality at Walmart?? If they want to save a couple bucks on some lesser brands, isn’t that their right to choose?? What if I don’t want a $500 air-conditioner, and will settle for $99.99??

I just think it’s kind of funny how so many posts on this board claim “Walmart is low quality.” WE ALL KNOW THIS!! In fact, that’s exactly WHY some people shop there - because they can get middle/low quality stuff for very cheap. I don’t think anyone here is trying to pass of Walmart as a purveyor of classy, high-quality goods. By eliminating Walmart, it’s the lower class people who would suffer the most. What do you have against poor people???

“By eliminating Walmart, it’s the lower class people who would suffer the most. What do you have against poor people???"~aaa in

By eliminating Walmart employee’s (eg Jonquiere Quebec), who are the lowest pay and just want a fairer deal,it’s the lower paid people who suffer the most. What does WM have against poor people???

Alex,

“By eliminating Walmart employee’s (eg Jonquiere Quebec), who are the lowest pay and just want a fairer deal,it’s the lower paid people who suffer the most”

Are you saying that those Jonquiere Wal-Mart employees were getting the lowest pay in that area?  If they were, then wouldn’t it be reasonable to say, that those workers have all found new, higher paying jobs by now, therefore, it could be said that Wal-Mart did them a favor, as they are better off now, not having to work for that low wage, ‘evil’ Wal-Mart anymore!!

What I can’t understand, is if Wal-Mart is so terrible, why, after over 2 years, do you still wish those workers were still working for them?

I’ll let you in on a secret, if Wal-Mart was willing to close down the store, they would not have been willing to give much in ‘bargaining’ and it would have ended up in a strike and Wal-Mart wouldn’t care, after all, they lost the business when they closed the store, so, why would they worry about lost sales during a strike, and those workers could still be on strike or have given in, like the California grocery workers did!!

jane the same shoes you hiss at wm for selling are sold at your favorite stores and shoes stores and you dont piss and moan about that but you gripe cause wm sells them.jane zipp your lip and shut up.i am sick and tired of all you arrogant hypocrites whining about everything wm does good and bad but we dont hear the same whining from you folks when all of your favorite stores do the same things that wm does and sell the same items from china and overseas that wm does.

who cares about anything i ever wrote.what a waste of my own time.maybe i can catch the weekend replay of rush and know that i am not the only person so totally full of shit.i love the chinese communist and wm support of them you elitist hypocrite arrogant american part time whiners who piss and moan that your good paying jobs left the country and now your poor crybabies.i love being poor for wm to be rich why not you.

Don’t most people know that they’re not getting high quality at Walmart??

Thank you, aaa, for pointing out so clearly the difference between the Wal-Mart of Sam’s Dream and the Beast of Bentonville of today.

Sam Walton’s Values

We model ourselves after Sam Walton, who was never satisfied until prices were as low as they could be. Or that a product’s quality was as high as customers deserved and expected.

Are you saying, aaa, that shoddy ‘sport’ shoes that fly apart under stress are all Wal-Mart customers deserve and expect?
Good enough for who it’s for, huh?

Ken V,

“Don’t most people know that they’re not getting high quality at Walmart?? ~ aaa

What you have to understand, is there are different degrees of quality, take this for example:  A Rolex watch is ‘quality’ and garners a high price, but I bought a watch last year, for $6.95 at Wal-Mart and while I know it is not a quality watch like a Rolex, it still meets my needs, because it lets me know what time it is!!  Now, it may only last for 3 to 4 years, but, by then, I can buy another one, for about the same price!!  Now, maybe a Rolex, may last 20 years or so, I can buy a whole lot of $6.95 watches for the price of 1 Rolex!!

Then, there are things like CD’s and DVD’s, they are the same ‘quality’ anywhere you buy them!!  This goes for many things across the board, a customer can decide, how much ‘quality’ they need in a product and go from there, whether to buy at Wal-Mart or somewhere else!!  But, to think you should ONLY buy a ‘quality’ product and so you pay a higher price somewhere else, because you think that something like say Quaker State oil at Wal-Mart is of lesser quality there, could cost you thousands of dollars over the long haul!!

In order to be a good comparison shopper, you need a bunch of stores to compare prices and quality at, and Wal-Mart is just one of them!!

what difference does quality make?the same items are sold for higher prices at all you wm haters favorite stores and we never hear any bitching and whining from any of you about the product qualiity,but wm sells it at lower prices and you throw a hisy fit..are you getting a better quality product by paying higher prices for the same items imoported from china and their slaveshops over there at your favorite stores and will it last you longer?no and thats what you wm hater fools are not smart enough to get.

...what difference does quality make?

See the happy moron,
He doesn’t give a damn.
I wish I were a moron,
— My God! Perhaps I am!
