You know I wouldnt rat on anyone cos unlike them I have principles. They may be different from the norm but I believe in them. I know an importer who I dont deal with who sells them but y should I finger him to stop the heat? He hasnt done me no harm. | Hello Bollock,
What kind of items are you selling???
I had a friend a while back who was selling bootleg movie dvd's.
He was contacted by a rep from Sony(picture dept),who filed the Vero with ebay,and had a legal case pending against him.
My friend ignored the emails,and was then contacted at his home(he info was in his real name).
He never answered the calls,and then was sent a certified letter through the USPS from the legal dept at Sony,and later a summons to appear in court.
To make a very long story short,he is now in the process of being sued for copyright infringement.
As stated on dvd's,illegal copying is a felony,and punishable both with jail time and monetary compensation.
My friend thought the same as you....they will never go after a little person,only big corps,etc.......
Now i am not saying that you are in the same situation(not knowing what you have been selling),but i may be a bit nervous if i were you.
I hope everything does turn for the best.
Keep us posted.
