Hi All !

 

I know you will be inundated with various questions regarding  the GPSR regulation coming in, but what is the answer when someone asks,  they sell  say vintage toys well over 30 years of age,  where the Manufacturer no longer exists,  what are they meant to put in the new Item Disclosure section.

 

Others are concerned why would a Manufacturer reveal where they source items,  surely then the person asking could go and buy  their stock direct then from the Manufacturer's source.

 

Thanks.

Hi @tressygirl , thanks for your post.

We've addressed this question to relevant teams as well and the answer we were given is the following:

The law does not provide any exceptions for products that were made by a person/entity that no longer exists. Please note, however, that products that were first supplied for distribution, consumption or use on the EU market (in the course of a commercial activity) prior to Dec. 13, 2024 are exempted from GPSR, as long as they are covered by the current product safety directive and comply with it.  See article 51 GPSR.  

There are also some categories excluded, and you can see the list in the FAQs on the GPSR Seller Center page.

Thank you,

Anita
