Basically an Amazon seller sources product from China and gets the manufacturer to label the product with their brand name. Quality can be either really good or dodgy.
However, I have seen a lot of this stuff with the CE mark but not the UL mark.
Do the CE underwriters just let anyone stamp their mark on any product with minimal oversight?
- pjc50 11y agoThere are no CE underwriters and you put the mark on your own products. It's self-certification. The manufacturer/importer is supposed to be able to produce evidence of compliance on demand, but if it's posted from China, good luck with that. This is why the products are so cheap.
