Belgian Court Dismisses eBay Charge
eBay has announced that a Belgian court has dismissed legal complaints from French cosmetics company L’Oreal SA that rise from the sale of counterfeit cosmetics and perfumes on the online auction site.
In a case brought by L’Oréal Group, the Belgian Tribunal de Commerce today exonerated eBay of any wrongdoing.
In a statement, eBay says: “This is the second successful court ruling in a row for eBay, both supporting our view that controlling prices and distribution reduces consumer choice. The litigation of counterfeits against eBay has been exposed as merely a stalking horse. eBay provides a vibrant and trusted marketplace that gives European consumers a good deal. We work to tackle the menace of counterfeit through action and co-operation with rights owners.”
