Result of not registering WEEE:
WEEE was not registered, and listing was lightly blocked. On the premise that the prime minister is well sold by the merchant, the competitor pays attention to the fact that the competitor buys the merchandise of the merchant, and the merchandise does not have a trash can printed with a slash, or the merchandise is not recovered after it is registered in Germany. The competitor will send a letter to the German lawyer to Amazon, requesting to stop the sale of the company's merchandise, and apply for procedures to destroy all the company's merchandise in Amazon.
At this time, the merchant not only lost all the inventory, but also paid for the lawyer's letter and the cost of commodity damage, which may mean that the company was basically driven out of the German market (previously, a large number of small sellers were collectively accused by large sellers, causing serious losses).
