    CDiscount the French online retailer.

    Has anybody got any experience with selling through them? I'm told they're the biggest e-commerce platform in France and work just like amazon so merchants can fulfil their own orders. I'm considering trialling selling our products through them. Their website's terrible though, no idea how...

    Is this a realistic expectation for suing amazon counterfeiters?

    Amazon finally kicked her off our products though she seems to be unpunished by them and allowed to continue trading on there!! Wow, whole thing was so shocking really made us tighten up our game though, probably good this happened now rather than when we're really busy. Thanks for all the...

    Is this a realistic expectation for suing amazon counterfeiters?

    Excellent response thank you, sounds like you've had a v bad experience yourself, hope you won. I thought it might be unrealistic. Very easy to be a fraudster, easier and safer than legit business it seems. Scum. I found out its a 27yr old irish girl so I'm actually thinking of using my old...

    Is this a realistic expectation for suing amazon counterfeiters?

    Well I've sent one from us rather than from a solicitor, I'll look into that to make it official. If I'm guaranteed a win, would it pay off in court? I mean, she is knowingly creating counterfeit goods.

    Is this a realistic expectation for suing amazon counterfeiters?

    I was recently informed by a fellow victim that our amazon products (exclusive to my trademarked brand) now have an additional seller undercutting us with fake goods. It's a massive stupid loophole in amazon which means basically any seller can sell any pre-listed product with no proof of...

    Ouch! Nasty experience. Sorry you went through all that, sounds like you got a real bad egg. I hate getting stung like that in business, happens so often when you're venturing into new territory and taking little risks. That's why forums like this are so ruddy useful. I've just accepted a...

    Freelancer.com looks great at first glance

    Hi, just about to use Freelancer.com for the 1st time. I've already posted the job and had loads of freelancer bids (some within the first 5 microseconds which is curious). Any advice or warnings before I take someone on? If it is safe and easy then I've been missing a trick not using it...

    Selling to Saudi and UAE

    Thanks for the reply. Yes the product is only worth round £3 each and customers spend on average £20 per order so DHL isn't really an option. Can you elaborate on the payment issues? Thanks

    Selling to Saudi and UAE

    Hi, I'm just wondering if any of you have advice for serving these two markets? I have a product which is cheap and sells in small quantities. We usually post them out by standard airmail and it takes around 5 working days to most places internationally. We always have major problems with...

    Orders """"Disappearing"""" do you experience this?

    Thanks. Yes looked up PPI and it sounds like you're right, it's the way to go. I'll give them a call today. I think certain countries you always need to get proof of postage, it's time consuming but at least gives you the vital evidence to stop amazon/ebay siding with the customer...
