I can totally see why a company wouldnt want a knock off version of something that was designed to save a life. If it fails thats a lawsuit in itself towards the company.

Our Federal Trade Commission needs to crack down on foreign countries misrepresenting metals in jewelry, on Etsy.

I just think it’s so fishy that they are still being sold but you were sued over selling them 🤯

Going after the little guy instead of the big multinational company that was pushing them. There should be a law against this. They should have to prove malicious is tent and conspiracy.
Anyone can pick up a counterfeit item and not know.
Mom and pop resellers need to band together to get laws passed for protection from this kind of nonsense.

Wow! You are really lucky it was only 250! Thank you for sharing.

Temu sells tons of fakes ! Should be illegal to ship here.

I am so thankful for you sharing this experience. I see others second guessing your every move and action but I think you being up front and honest about what transpired was the right thing to do. I am glad it worked out for you in the end, with only a minimal financial impact. Happy selling. Peace

Selling on eBay is not worth it anymore

[vickisticks]

Amazon is notorious for selling and allowing their secondary sellers to sell counterfeit items. Bogus beauty products is a multi billion dollar business and Amazon sells a ton of them. I have personally bought several items that didn't even have a tag on it or a box so I know that it was not legit. I would really re-think buying any more Amazon bins. I hope you've learned your lesson. Good luck.

Just found you while I'm about to sell on Ebay for the second time. Lost my job but excited about the future. Yes, I'm a Christian and I KNOW what you mean. He saved your house. Don't be afraid. You know He is with you! God Bless you and I just want to tell you that your videos have been a great encouragement for me.

Companies can file copyright claims against you without any evidence. I won't get into details, but one of the big 3 auto makers tried filing bogus counterfeit claims against inventory I had because I was selling it for less than they were. I provided receipts showing the inventory was purchased directly from one of their dealerships and hired an IP lawyer to send them a cease and desist letter. They backed off this time, but I know my days are numbered, I even make mid 6 figure sales on ebay a year, but even I don't have the unlimited funds required to fight major US corporations.

You may want to consider getting an Umbrella Policy to insure you against things like this, it's a small price to pay for peace of mind.

I can’t help but wonder if the $250 settlements are a scam.

You can not serve anyone by email. A letter can be sent via email. However, under the Court Rules, pleadings need to be sent via Regular & Certified Mail. This is done to confirm that the other party has received the documents.

This happened to me last year, I totally get what you mean about the emotional roller coaster. The judge in my case told my lawyer that these are BS lawsuits and that he thinks they should be illegal. These are essentially legal sanctioned scams on small businesses in the US.

Great informational video. Keep your head up and thanks for sharing what happened. As a reseller on ebay I wasn't aware of the risk of being sued! I don't source at Amazon bins and now won't for sure! How scary for you!

[ellen]

Thanks for sharing all the details, Very helpful,

[jenniferwhitehead]

I have a six month old and was on eBay last week looking at the lifevac. Scary to think of how many things are counterfeited.

Thank you for sharing your story! That takes courage.
