- op00to 5y agoPretty sure when you sell on Amazon you commit to binding arbitration. Like amazons not gonna stack that deck.
- beervirus 5y agoThere are also plenty of lawyers who would take a binding arb case on contingency. Amazon wrote the contract, but that doesn’t mean the arbitrator is in the bag for them.
- encryptluks2 5y agoWhat are their names?
- beervirus 5y agoIf you’re in Texas I know a few.
- throwaway1777 5y agoNot a lawyer but I don’t think arbitration would apply to criminal fraud charges.
- akudha 5y agoDo you really think this is practical? My employer is suing a tiny operation for 50k USD that he owes them. We have all the paperwork etc. already spent 4K in lawyer fees, just for step one. This is after trying to get in touch with him for months. He doesn’t give a shit. If it is this difficult to fight a tiny business, how does anyone take on Amazon? There are rare people who are willing to lose their shirts on principle, but most people are just trying to take care of their families. Best long term solution is to not use Amazon at all. That is also very difficult. So we are all stuck with not much choice
- brutusborn 5y agoIf it's a fairly simple case, there are probably many lawyers who would happily take on the risk of losing the case.
- encryptluks2 5y agoEasy statement, why did don't you find a good lawyer that will take the case for free and send them a referral?
- 1123581321 5y agoThey’d take $20-30k if they worked on contingency. Spending $5k to obtain a default judgment is a better investment. (A default judgment would be the outcome if this person has disappeared, but has assets in the same country, and the owed amount is documented.)
- FDSGSG 5y agoIt's much easier, and much likely to be worth spending time on, to fight a bigco than the tiny business that doesn't care.
