    Ridiculous.

    Taken just a small step farther, isn’t the Consumer Products Safety Commission responsible since they allowed the defective product to enter the country?

    A ruling against Amazon would extend to all distributors, making the dealership where you bought your car responsible for safety issues and perhaps unsafe use of the product.

    This would be a blow to any start up company that wants to compete against Amazon. Amazon can afford to do this, but a start up company could fail rather quickly. Interesting though that on eBay they’ll tell you what country a product is coming from, but Amazon doesn’t. On eBay you can sort to only products coming from American retailers, but again on Amazon you cannot.
    It appears Amazon is doing it’s part anyway if what the article is saying is correct. Politicians will not rest until everything has a law so mom and pop stores can no longer pop up without a team of attorney’s looking into every restriction from legislation.
    What happened to personal responsibility? People want to save big dollars so they buy on-line, but they expect the same of everything has people that buy in a brick and mortar store. You can’t have it both ways.
