I want to sell these cables as generic cables on Amazon. For example, the listing title will be something like this:
2 Charging cables for iPhone 6 6s iPhone 5 5s iPhone 7 iPhone X iPhone 8 Plus
And you know the specification under the titling where it says for example:
By Apple - By Samsung ...etc
In my listing it will be:
By X-Company (Not Apple, rather the name of the company from which I bought the cable. It's a Chinese factory name).
So nothing in my listing will indicate that the cables were made by Apple at all (No photos from Apple.com, no usage of the word Apple in neither the title or the item description).
I think this way one could only argue that I am infringing on Apple design rights because the cables look identical to the ones made by Apple. However I am yet to read about a report filed by Markmonitor or Apple itself based on that ground!
The structure of my listing will be very similar to this listing ( Warning: Amazon.com link): https://www.amazon.com/Xcords-Charge...s=iphone+cable
I have not yet created a stealth account with Amazon.de, but will do in the coming days. It will not be a stealth account though, it will be registered with my real information.
What do you think? Will this listing go smoothly?
