Selling a fake iphone case but not advertising the brand illegal?

My friend had made a purchase of over 100 fake top brand(leave the brand out for now) Iphone cases for a very cheap price and sold them cheaply thru eBay. Ebay quickly took his listing as he was actually advertising the brand in his listing. After much frustration he gave up on the cases and gave them to me. Is it legal to sell these cases without mentioning the brand at all? Simply selling non brand Iphone cases isn't illegal right?

If they were made to be confused with another brand name by someone not licensed to make them and you knowingly sell them, it doesn't matter if you advertise the name or not. It is still dealing counterfeit merchandise.

China sells unbranded items in the US everyday.

You can sell them but if its saying something like "Appel" instead of "Apple" and has their logo, then no its not legal. It has to be clear that its not imitating a name or logo. Otherwise yeah you can sell them.

  • Which is better: selling on amazon or selling on ebay? I have an individual seller account and I've noticed that my products sell much faster or ebay. However, I sold two iphones. My final sale fee $1100. However, ebay charged me a final sale fee of $135 Then I was charged $40 by paypal Then I paid $60 total to ship both items. On my amazon account I sold 1 phone. The phone cost $180 Amazon took out $30 Shipping cost $10 So I made $140
  • Is there such thing as fake Iphone 5 selling in S'pore that shares the same logo Apple have? I wanted to buy an Iphone 5 in Singapore, but was told that there are fake Iphone 5 manufactures and was unsure and worried whether they are selling those cheaper option smartphones in Singapore that shares the same logo, trademark design as Apple, which I hope not.

  • Is it illegal to send a fake thing? Is it illegal to send a piece of paper that is cut out and colored to look like an iPhone to usell? And collect the money?
