Hi
Could someone help me understand chinese manufactures?
I came across many manufactures who produces copies of apple ipods and other items such as “coach bags”.
They are producing them without any rights.

Does their government even care?
Are their copies exactly the same? Because many manfuactures tells me they are, but how is that possible? If they are not made by the same machine and techniques. They won’t be. Unless the chiense stoled apple ipod’s blueprint.

If i were to buy copies from these manufactures and retail them in united states, would i get in trouble?

I can see three scenarios/
1. i retail them online and write in the description that the item are copies of the real product and they are manufactured in china.
2. i retail them online and claim they are the real product.
3. i don’t claim they are similar or copies of the real product. I don’t mention the name of the real product, but i give it a new name.

Is any of these three legal?

If i proceed with option 2? ..?
