[QUOTE="Tonteldoos, post: 1184888, member: 689"] US law doesn't apply in SA, and mixing US state law into the mix compared to federal or other US laws doesn't solve anything here. Without offering any legal opinion (which I'm not qualified to anyway), any party would need to consider the Consumer Protection Act, Counterfeit Goods Act, Intellectual Property laws, the Customs and Excise Act as well as fraud and common law to consider whether their practices are above board. This industry is probably too small to draw the attention of the competition commission, but I would love to understand why some responsible retailers can get their pricing so close to international benchmarks while others appears to sell at ridiculous margins compared to international retailers. And as in any supply/demand situation, any artificial attempts to inflate prices will force consumers to look for alternate channels. Greed is never a great long term strategy. [/QUOTE]
