eBay wins Belgian court victory over L’Oreal

BRUSSELS -- Online auctioneer eBay won a Belgian court case Tuesday against L’Oreal after the French cosmetics giant sued it over the sale of counterfeit goods. L’Oreal, in a statement, declared itself “extremely surprised” at the ruling and said it intended to appeal.

The French company has brought cases against eBay in five European nations, including Belgium, accusing the company of not doing enough to prevent the sale of counterfeit goods posted on its auction and sale sites. The court ruled that the world’s largest online auctioneer did not have “a general monitoring obligation” of what was on offer on its site.
