<p>[QUOTE="reader, post: 9499677, member: 255"]I do think this is an interesting discussion on licenses. I started checking out of my own curiosity and could not find any listing which named a license unless the license was named on the tags e.g. The French Company for Louis Vuitton. Most sellers would have no clue who licensed a product or IF it was licensed. Almost all accessories of all clothing labels are licensed. RTW houses do not make handbags, belts, shoes etc. (Obviously there are exceptions where the companies own their own factories but those are few and far between). All that stuff is licensed and none of it is disclosed by any seller who would have no way of knowing anyway. Items are resold by the label they carry. The entire point of a license is that the product is legally the house that issued the license. In many cases the licensed product is the same quality as the issuing house. In some it isn’t. IMO that’s up to the buyer to discern the quality of what they’re purchasing and people do need to take responsibility for what they buy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
