This is not scalable. You are literally asking thousands of manufacturers to alter their manufacturing process. A much better way is to establish trust certificate. For example, if I want to sell something at Amazon and want to have “Verified” mark, I should submit my identification documents plus documents that establishes my relationship with manufacturers (ex “authorized dealers”). This is already done by many in real world and the question is just to bring it online.
- nickff 4y agoThis sounds good, but is not a robust and reliable methodology. There are many problems including: - Some authorized resellers mix in counterfeits with real goods. - Other authorized resellers are only authorized to distribute certain items, but get others through 'shady' channels. - Some resellers will sell returned or repaired items. - Most resellers don't actually have time-limited deals. - Agreements lapse, and figuring out who is permitted to distribute what is complicated. - None of these measures are actually verifiable by the concerned consumer.
