BagButton and eBay VeRO
October 06, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
BagButton LLC, the industry leader in economical vacuum space saving solutions to the home and industrial marketplace, announced today there acceptance into the VeRO program through eBay. Mr. Storey, President of BagButton LLC stated, “The VeRO program developed by eBay is a true economical asset to all companies selling or looking to sell on eBay. The legal fees alone could be devastating to start up companies dealing with product and copy right infringement.” EBay is committed to protecting the intellectual property rights of third parties and to providing its users with a safe place to trade. EBay created the Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) Program so that intellectual property owners could easily report listings that infringe their rights. It is in eBay’s interest to ensure that infringing items are removed from the site, as they erode buyer and good seller trust.
BagButton is fast becoming a familiar trademark around the world. Fraud and infringement has become common place for BagButton. Storey added, “To protect our good name and to save thousands in legal fees, we became a member of the VeRO program, and periodically police eBay auctions. If there is a violation, we will cancel the auction. Most auctions are cancelled for three reasons. Either 1) our trademark and or logo was used to describe goods which are not actually BagButton, or 2) our copyrighted product photos and text were used in the auction without a license, and 3) an illegal import and or reproduction of the BagButton.
There are quit a few BagButtons for sale on eBay and the internet. These are sold globally by contracted individual companies, and BagButton LLC. We hope everyone has a pleasant buying and sales experience (and know you will love our product). We invite you to visit our website. The site is filled with information, instructions, pictures and of course our video demonstration of the BagButton. You can even find a distributor near you or to learn about the wonderful opportunities in becoming a distributor yourself.”
The mind set of this release was not only to update BagButton’s market position, but to help reduce the anxiety in those individuals sitting on a product or idea with fears of loosing it due to fraud or infringement. An individual can move forward into the market place with the help of eBay’s VeRO program and still maintain there intellectual property rights.
BagButton is a registered trademark of BagButton LLC. All other trademarks are the property of their respective companies.
