well then cant help greed boy as i personally know that in few factories like who make zara i myself go and buy and i am sure about my sources and i agree with you that unless its purchased by a authorised distributor it cant be claimed genuine but i am in this trade since past 1 year and i have not yet recieved any complaints from my clients if you leave few exceptional complaints like colour mistake or size problem and that too were resolved

Before joining this forum i had already told the admin anthony that i cant provide any legal paperwork but i am 100 % sure that the stuff what i am selling comes from the same factory from where its exported to US & EU and as i already admitted that unless its bought from distributor or licensee then it cant be claimed genuine but in someway it is

so lets leave it to the buyers who agree with me and have no worries buying it from me

what say

I am sorry, but you have said it yourself, the items cannot be claimed to be authentic. Even if they are coming from the same factories, made of the same material, it still doesn“t make them any less illegal. If you care to go over some of my previous posts, I have explained in length the difference between authentic licenced goods and the so-called "overruns" or whatever they are called. And there is just no way around the fact that selling these items is illegal and dangerous.

And just because your customers are happy doesn“t mean the items in question are any less fake. It just shows that they either have no idea what they are doing, or that they don“t mind the items to be fake. If customs will check any of the shipments, the items will be seized instantly, and there will be a big fine.

well in that case I can just have a paperwork from the factory that the merchandise is for sale within india only and i have been sending the stuff abroad since onyera and never had a problem with customs as we generellly ship 25 pcs per carton. And when people out here can import iphones and gaming consoles from china and usa which are meant to be sold in there respective countries and can only be exported by the concerened brands i.e apple for iphone and sony for ps3 but still people get it from there so whats wrong with the branded garments ? i am not doing anything wrong with exporting them its the customer who is ok with it then i dont guess there should be any problem,
If the admin ask me not to sell my products here then i have no problem. i have more things to sell garments are already selling i can sell anything like hookahs,sheeshas,flavoured tobacco,furniture,books,toys,electronics etc but provided anthony ask me to do so.

A licenced manufacturer will not provide you with any paperwork whatsoever. After all, a licenced manufacturer is only allowed to sell to the respective brand name owner, and nobody else, since the items are produced on order of the brand name owner.

Even if the items in question would be authentic and made for the indian market, sourced through the proper distribution channels, you would still be bound to selling them in India only, due to the given restrictions and parallel imports.

Obviously, when you say you ship the items in boxes of 25 only, you do know about the fact that larger shipments are more prone to inspections than smaller lots. So I think you have a pretty good idea about what you are in fact selling. And just because other people import and export other items that they might not be supposed to, doesn“t make any difference in the matter.

Yeah jojo i know all these facts but the biggest fact is that the products which i am selling are genuine and authentic and to best of my knowledge i dont see anything wrong neither my clients in selling and buying of these products.

And can we now leave it up to the traders who are willing to buy these stuff ? as i guess we have discussed every bit of it and all the good,bad and the ugly possibilities of selling these facts
pls dont think i am being rude or upset by whatever the feedbacks i have got so far
and i am ok with not selling the stuff in this forum rather i would sell other products with lesser of discussions and more of business enquiries and materialised deals

First you say
Quote:

,
and now you say
Quote:
the products which i am selling are genuine and authentic
.

I am sorry, but I find that a bit contradicting. And I am sorry to pursue this, but you either have no idea what you are selling, in which case you should pay more attention, or you know perfectly well what you are selling, which means you are passing on fakes as authentic. I have heard arguements like yours many times before. And when you say "leave it up to the traders who are willing to buy these stuff", it sounds a lot like you want to see if there is anyone who doesn“t mind buying fakes. The fact that you are shipping the items is boxes of 25 also points into this direction. Afterall, if a client wants for example 100 Polos, why would I ship this lot in 4 different boxes instead of just 1 box thus making the shipping more expensive than necessary, if it isn“t for a reason.

well the first quote which i made was when i am admitting that these polos are from the same factory and are genuine but are not meant to be sold out of india so in a way they are not genuine and second quote was made when one of our fellow trader said that i am selling fakes (which in my dictionary means that i am making the polos and just sticking the tags and claiming it to be originals) so pls dont mix things to make it more complicated and dont worry i have full idea oof what i am selling and about my clients they know what they are buying and they dont need you to tell them what is it all about they are convinced with the fact that these are originals and not meant to be sold in international market which i admit is right but still if they want to buy then i dont think i should tell them to first ask you to buy from me . right ?

sorry for being harsh but i never expected so many questions
