VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 21, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tinkerine Studios Ltd. (“Tinkerine” or the “Company”) (TSXV:TTD) (FSE:WB6B) (OTC:TKSTF) announces that the Company encountered a contract dispute over payment terms for a sale booked during the third quarter 2016. This dispute occurred after the distributor had signed a distributor agreement and had accepted delivery of products to their warehouse.

The sales return is in the amount of $541,098, and the Company has terminated the distributer agreement with the third party.

President and Chief Executive Officer Eugene Suyu states: “We are extremely disappointed with the dispute over the sale during the third quarter, and determined that instead of pursuing legal action, we would take back the product and focus on delivery and sales to new and existing customers moving forward. We continue to focus on development and implementation of Tinkerine U, and penetration into Canada and the United States market.”
