On June 30th, a French court ordered eBay to pay six Louis Vuitton brands almost 40 million euros ($63 million) in damages for infringement resulting from the sale of counterfeit goods by its users on its site and also prohibits eBay from selling four perfumes -- Christian Dior, Kenzo, Givenchy and Guerlain -- on its websites. The court also ordered eBay to post the ruling on all its websites in English and French for three weeks and to pay for its publication in three French or international publications of Louis Vuitton’s choice. The court held that eBay is not qualified to sell Louis Vuitton perfumes, saying that LV perfumes should only be distributed through selected retailers with trained staff. eBay will appeal the ruling. (Three weeks ago, a French court found eBay liable for 20,000 euros for selling counterfeit Hermes handbags)
