Q: Hello, I have a legal question. Thank You
Hello,
I found a product online through AliBaba, which is one of the biggest companies in the world. If I purchase the product & the product ends up being counterfeit, can I get into trouble?
The seller states the item is authentic, the seller has good reviews, and I'm able to purchase through AliBaba and use my credit card, which allows me to simply file a dispute with my card agency and get my money back if the item was fake. Most legit sellers won't allow PayPal or credit cards when selling bogus items because of this fact.
I'm buying a large amount ($4000) to get the wholesale price. Its not a crazy super low price, I'm still paying a decent amount per item and buying 360 pieces. The products sells for $29.99 and I'm buying wholesale at $10 - $15.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank You
A:
keep all your documentation with the seller who claims it is legit.
that is a substantial savings but most things are marked up double anyway and they may be trying to unload things at their cost.
save this inquiry and documentation from the seller in case there is an issue.
