They supposedly couldn't play the audio file. Looking back I probably should have transcribed it and highlighted the relevant parts to show the issue more clearly.

I did this once with Chase and didn't get anywhere. Had a CFPB case opened and they refused to budge. I had called multiple times and was told that their QuickPay was irreversible and that it was fine to use it for commercial transacti

What app works well for recording without hurting audio quality or lag? I'm happy to pay for something that just works; the free ones I've tried suffer from quality/lag/glitchy issues.

You want exposure to 50% of the upside: this means you want exposure to 50k worth of each stock. You don't want to lose more than 100k total, and are ok being wiped out if both drop 50%. Seems to me like you'd want to buy 25k wort

You could almost certainly have done better by borrowing money and buying the right kind of options. If you're willing to give up half the upside for a stop-loss, you would collect quite a premium and should more than offset even usuri

Nah, they've taken down many others using different methods. Besides there's several competing organizations trying to take stuff down from different countries.

It's somewhat surprising this hasn't happened earlier. They've been tracking these things for years, surely not everyone has been careful enough to keep it hidden.

>Without that label, when a packer scans an item just before they place it in a shipping box for the customer, how do they know which seller's inventory to decrement? It's very simple: they're stored in different locations

As above, they know which seller sent it in and at no point did they "choose not to know". Your entire comment is based on a false premise.

A case being mutually dismissed with prejudice means a settlement happened. If it's dismissed without prejudice it could be either way.

What exactly have you experienced that makes you so confident that Amazon is lying about tracking the original source of manufacturer barcode products? I've sold millions on Amazon and am friends with many sellers who've collectiv

How are you submitting your claim? You can do both counterfeit and DMCA reports, but DMCA reports have a deadline of two weeks where it must be processed and delisted by then. I've never heard of anyone having a legitimate DMCA report

I've sued Amazon (privately in arbitration) and I have friends who've sued them in court. Nothing wrong with suing to prevent infringement. It'll just get them to fix the problem, and you'll get nice money out of it if i

There's lots of warnings about that, and virtually no one actually experiencing it. Generic complaints typically come from customer complaints. Customers complain even when the product is authentic. There's nothing in your story t

I'd be fascinated to know why he didn't sue Amazon, if they're refusing to process DMCA takedowns. My experience is that if anything, it's too easy to file a case and brands abuse this to get rid of grey market sellers t

Why do you think the problem is growing, and that it has to do with commingling? Re multiple quantity: have you gotten counterfeit and authentic product in the same box?

by ikeboy 7y ago
That's a fair point, although people should read the reviews and can tell if it's content or formatting. The alternative of separating Kindle reviews seems wrong. Most reviews are useful to buyers of both formats.

Yes, but that's a problem with or without commingling. My point was that commingling doesn't contribute significantly to the counterfeit problem. Regarding your points: 1. Amazon takes action when a brand complains, even with only

Sold by Amazon probably does have a very low rate. They're many times bigger than any third party seller, so the absolute number of counterfeits is probably higher.

by ikeboy 7y ago
You don't see the counterfactual where Amazon didn't enforce much and counterfeiting was much more prevalent. Without knowing how much counterfeiting would take place without enforcement, you can't say enforcement is useless.

If you buy a generic product with no brand name and no intellectual property, then all you have is the pictures. If they all look the same, they could technically be different quality but there's no reason to expect a certain level of

It has "not as described" as an option. You can put in text explaining what wasn't as described: if it has keywords like "counterfeit" or similar, it will go into that seller's CCR (counterfeit complaint rate),

Easy for who? Amazon knows which seller sent in the inventory for every order, so they know to punish the right seller when a complaint comes in. You are correct that customers could themselves choose better sellers, but most customers don&

It wouldn't help significantly. People would still get counterfeits when buying from bad sellers.

They do QC: sellers that have too many complaints get kicked off.
