A reseller’s choice to sell any Epic Xylitol brand products constitutes acceptance of this policy in full, without confirmation, written or verbal, by reseller of their acceptance.
This policy applies to all Epic Xylitol brand products, including but not limited to Epic Xylitol chewing gums, Epic Xylitol mints, Epic Xylitol toothpastes, Epic Xylitol mouthwashes, Epic Xylitol sweeteners.
The policy applies to list or advertised prices and not the prices at which Epic Xylitol brand products are actually sold by resellers.
Resellers may advertise the products at or above the minimum advertised price. The minimum advertised price for Epic Xylitol brand products is 20% lower than the published MSRPs (retail prices) listed on the www.epicdental.com website.
