Wholesale Chess Buys Chess Equipment Inventory of Closing Chess Discounters

In early February, 2005, Wholesale Chess completes an inventory-only purchase of the remaining chess equipment held by Chess Discounters. No employees, policies, or ownership was transferred.

(PRWEB) February 8, 2005 -- In early February 2005, Wholesale Chess Equipment, LLC (www.wholesalechess.com) purchased the remaining chess sets, books, software, and all other inventory items from Chess Discounters (www.chessdiscounters.com) as they ceased operations. Chess Discounters leaves the following message for all customers: "Thank you for your patronage! It was our pleasure to serve you. - The Staff at Chess Discounters"

Wholesale Chess, the Internet's premier online chess store, purchased those assets in a move to position itself more solidly in the chess media market. This month Wholesale Chess began to carry the full line of chess software from Chessbase and Convekta (aka Chess Assistant), all available at below retail prices. Additionally, Wholesale Chess is ramping up for a full launch of hundreds of new book titles, intended to all be priced at or below Amazon.com prices. "We want the chess players of the world to have One place they can come to for all of their chess needs, and to have them know that they will get their items immediately and at the guaranteed lowest prices," stated Erik Allebest, owner of Wholesale Chess. Wholesale Chess carries an inventory of over 500 different chess items, with more than 100,000 total items on the shelf. Erik continues, "We understand that nothing is more frustrating than ordering something online and then not receiving that item, and finally having it shipped out a week after you expected it to arrive because it was drop shipped from someplace else. That is why we carry 95% of the items on our site in our warehouse." The Wholesale Chess warehouse is located in Salt Lake City, UT, USA.

While the purchase of inventory from Chess Discounters did not include the transfer of any policies, employees, or ownership, Wholesale Chess has agreed to help past Chess Discounters' customers to resolve any issues with their orders.
