Palisades Entertainment, LLC has announced a partnership with Diamond Comic Distributors, officially naming Diamond as their distributor for the hobby retail market in North America.  The new relationship will result in greater discounts for retailers on Palisades and Factory X products purchased from Diamond, will allow Diamond to stock more Palisades products, and will provide Palisades with more 'real estate' in Diamond Previews.

The effects of the agreement on other distributors serving various sorts of hobby, game and collectibles stores are less apparent.  Starting today Diamond will take over the administration of these accounts.  The distributors that previously ordered directly from Palisades will receive letters within the week, detailing the changes to their accounts and how to proceed.
