MrMoo posted:Kickstarter worthy: $85 for a pair of slippers. all mahabis products (including slippers and soles) are designed for comfort and relaxation at home; these are slippers and not shoes. they are designed to be worn indoors and for light outdoor use ONLY (such as collecting the bins, nipping to the garden etc.). In particular, the detachable soles are designed for light outdoor use ONLY. Any use beyond this is at your own risk.

Endless Mike posted:honda ridgelines are exactly what consumer trucks should be (except like 10-20% smaller) Sagebrush posted:yep. that's why no one buys em. the honda ridgeline is a fwd minivan platform with a couple of braces welded in so it doesn't turn into a pretzel the first time you try to tow something despite its considerably limited capabilities, it gets worse gas mileage than an actual body-on-frame truck from general motors edit: 2016 ford f-150 (full size pickup) 19/26 city/hwy mpg 2016 gmc canyon (midsize pickup) 22/31 city/hwy mpg 2017 honda ridgeline (minivan) 19/26 city/hwy mpg (the ridgeline also costs more than a canyon or an f150!)

fart simpson posted:a clause like that only protects you from that specific factory from selling knockoffs. any other factory you didn't sign a contract with can make whatever they want unless you've filed for an invention or design patent but why would they make something on their own when they can just run a second shift on the original production line and claim it's an entirely separate business enterprise with no connection to the first factory's beneficial owners since the courts don't really work in china, people get pretty loving shameless about contract terms

fart simpson posted:i suspect a lot of the stories of foreign companies getting owned in china come from people who were basically shooting from the hip and hoping for the best instead of consulting actual lawyers with relevant experience beforehand in countries where the courts work properly, showing up and shooting from the hip actually works that's why people complain about contract enforcement in china, and not, say, the united states or germany

fart simpson posted:if anyone is actually interested in this type of thing you should read china law blog funny you should mention it here's a choice pull from the most recent article on china law blog quote:yesterday, one of our China lawyers got a similar email from a foreign buyer asking us essentially the same question. I discussed all of this with co-blogger Steve Dickinson and his response was “that’s what’s so cool about Chinese companies. They tell you what they are going to do. These two Chinese companies are saying if you don’t choose us we will steal your product. The choice is up to you. It’s up to our clients to listen” there's the last ten years in chinese civil law development, right there: they used to just steal your product and not warn you. now they threaten you with ip theft up front.

fishmech posted:no, i'm pretty sure showing up to court int he US with no clue about local law tends to work lovely if i make a contract with a manufacturer in the u.s. i can count on its fair and equitable enforcement whether or not i have any local allies in the area. worst case scenario: i have to hire a local lawyer the situation just aint that pretty in guangzhou. you need extensive expertise and advice, local and overseas, just to avoid being ripped off from the outset edit: gently caress, fart simpson appears to be one of these people who actually does scm or contracts management and still denies there is a problem?
