Will auction sites be forced to act from now on?

I've just read this story.

Britain and China have signed a copyright agreement. With all the fakes and stuff coming out of China (There's 1000's listed on eBay alone) it could have quite an impact if it is policed and enforced. Or maybe it's just a political token gesture?, I'm sure we'll see.

Depending on the agreement content it should give the manufacturers a better chance of doing something about all the fake stuff.

How are they going to prove it's fake?

When a lot of the designers are now having their goods made in China?

And also selling in TK Maxx now.

Seems they have shot themselves in the foot.

Well...
You can't Buy and Sell Designer Clothing,
Handbags & Shoes from China! Period!
Another commonly used trap – designer clothing, handbags & shoes. What can I say – there's no such a thing. End of the story. You can't buy Gucci handbags from China for $40 a piece. You can't buy Nike sports shoes from China for $30 a pair. You can't buy Lacoste polo shirts from China for $10 a piece. You simply can't, and there's no such a thing!
Ohh, sorry – yes, you can buy all those products, with shiny labels but they’ll all be FAKE! Fake! Fake! Fake! And selling counterfeit goods means – possible legal actions against the seller. I'm sure you wouldn’t want to be jailed or pay a huge fine for embarking on such a venture.
Designer clothing, handbags & shoes can only be sourced from official distributors, wholesalers or directly from the brand’s owner.


You Can't Buy or Sell DVD Box Sets from Asia! Period!
There are dozens of websites and hundreds if not thousands of individual sellers on any Auction sites offering DVD Box Sets dirt cheap. They say - it's an official Asian release, that's why the price tag is so low. Let me tell you this – there's no such a thing as so called “Asian Imports” in the DVD box set market.
Yes, there are DVDs produced only for China but you won't find any English writing on the box, neither and English audio track inside the movie. And they are available only in China, only for the local market. So called “Asian Imports” are counterfeit DVD copies, illegal to buy and sell anywhere in western World.
Just forget about buying DVD Box Sets from China and you'll save yourself a lot of troubles!


You can't Buy or Sell Branded Electronics
from China! Period!
Do you know why scammers are so successful? Because they can read your mind. OK, maybe not exactly BUT they know what the majority of people are looking for, hence so many scammer websites are filled with the top most wanted items. Chinese scammers know that you want Apple iPhones, Sony Play Stations, Xbox video consoles, Nokia mobile phones, Gucci handbags and similar products.
The thing is – you can't buy any of these products from China! Forget about it! The Asian scammers just take the advantage of the fact that these products are INDEED being manufactured in China. They'll tell you that everything these days comes from China, hence they can offer you lowest possible price.
While it's true that most of the stuff these days is manufactured in China & other Asian countries, it doesn't mean YOU can get those products directly from those countries. Companies who have factories in China have very strict contracts; they won't allow a single phone to be sold locally without their acknowledgement. While the manufacturing is taking place locally, distribution is handled in a totally different way.

So what can you buy from China? There are thousands of products YOU CAN buy directly from China, avoiding the local wholesale markup. Products you may consider:
Clothing (obviously not the designer ones)
Pet supplies
Toys
Un-branded electronics
Raw materials
PC accessories
Mobile Phone accessories
Hobby supplies
Fitness equipment & accessories
Blank media
Bags, pouches and covers
Stationary products
etc.

Well this is only my Advice for all Buyers and Sellers, thanks for reading and I wish you safe Buying....
