I cannot disagree more with their reasoning or decision, but hey, it's their business, and in America such business practices are legal (for comparison, in Australia they are most definitely not).
I'm curious, how are these practices illegal in Australia? It seems odd to me, but I'm American, so I'm used to our ways.
In Australia what Clever Mojo is doing is considered a distortion of the market. You can't restrict sales here the way they are doing there. It is called exclusive dealing, and (for example) refusing to sell to someone because they will then sell at a discount (or on-line), or attempting to put conditions on what the purchaser then does with the stock (or more specifically cannot do), is covered by it.
