Thread: Ebay: Paris Commercial Court Decision

I was watching this DD GE on ebay. Not sure if anyone else has posted about this, but when going to the auction today I see this:

"Unfortunately, access to this particular listing or item has been blocked due to a Paris commercial court decision that bans trade of certain authentic perfumes and cosmetic products on eBay because of French selective distribution laws. eBay is appealing this ruling but is nevertheless required to enforce it. We are blocking your viewing in an effort to comply with this court decision. Regrettably, in some cases, we may prevent users from accessing items that are not within the scope of the decision because of limitations on existing technology."

Here's the listing:
Dubl Duck Straight Razor-Excellent Condition! - eBay (item 180308806342 end time Nov-30-08 12:13:35 PST)

Anyone else have any problem with items they're watching. More specifically items listed in France? Does anyone know anything about this?

There was a case not very long ago involving Louis Vuitton suing ebay for all the fakes that were being listed. I wonder if this is related in any way?

Item seems to be located in the USA. I had no problems accessing it.

I get riht through. it went for 105.02?

I get that message all the time and it really annoys me.

Bizarre! Now I do also.

Sorry, nothing to see here.

Nope, I just checked again and I dont get through.

EDIT: I suspect it may have something to do with a counterfeit courts decision- a string of them- made in instances such as this:
