Spy Gadget Tools, A Cut-Out-And-Keep Indemnity Clause That Covers Your Butt And Gets You Sales

When selling spy gadgets and all manner of surveillance equipment it’s much easier to protect yourself from the start instead of waiting for trouble to find you.

It’s the nature of the beast. Items that you sell are going to be used illegally by the customers that you sell to.

Of course, that is not the reason that you sold them. You sell all your items for legal purposes only.

This fact also needs to be made clear to the purchaser or anyone that shops what you have to offer.

Spy gadgets are a hot commodity these days as crime rates continue to increase and the public is more concerned about their safety and privacy.

Spy Gadgets And The Law

Many security items, especially cameras and listening devices, have developed a bad reputation because of their use outside of the law.

For this reason it has become a necessity to tag all your merchandise with a disclaimer.

his will go a long way to relieve you of any liability over a product’s use once it leaves your possession.

Legally you can be held responsible if it can be proved that you sold the item with “malicious intent”, which you did not.

Here are some simple tips to cover your butt and at the same time generate some sales:

First and foremost, whenever you list your products be sure and mention the legal applications of the item.

Some of these uses include law enforcement, private investigation, store surveillance, etc.

This will assert your intentions and make it clear what purpose you have in distribution.

Another key tactic is to state either in the product description or in the ad copy that these items are sold for their “intended purpose only” and are not meant to be used for illegal means.

This is the phrase that keeps you separate from any action that may arise from any questionable usage from the buyer.

**A good indemnity clause should be worded something like….
————————————————————————————————————
“Descriptions on this site is for informational purposes only. This company is not responsible for any misuse of any product listed herein. It is the buyers’ sole responsibility to check and follow all applicable laws of their country. We are not to be held liable for any damages or losses incurred by use of equipment.”
————————————————————————————————————

This is basic and can be amended to fit your specific needs.

Oddly enough, this disclaimer often draws customers in and generates sales. The idea of having stuff like James Bond is incredibly appealing to people and the added disclaimer makes it sound even shadier.

Shipping Hassles

Another thing to guard against is shipping into areas where spy gadgets, on the whole or individually (ie: radar detectors) are prohibited.

Again state very clearly that you are willing to ship merchandise anywhere in the world but it is the buyer’s responsibility as to place of destination. Customs officials rarely enforce these laws but, just in case a good basic disclaimer that keeps you safe would be:

————————————————————————————————————
“Check your local laws. By ordering any product from this site the buyer assumes all responsibility in following all laws related to possession and use in your country. This company will not be held liable for any issues arising concerning shipping or customs.”
————————————————————————————————————

By  following these steps you should guarantee yourself trouble free sales.

So feel safe from any inherent legal hassles and sell spy gadgets and security items.

It’s on of the largest selling markets worldwide. And it doesn’t look to be slowing any time soon.

In fact, considering today’s safety conscience society it will only grow.

Now you’ve got the indemnity clauses get the spy gadgets that will sell at a wholesale price that you won’t believe. Visit Chinavasion.com or paste this URL into your browser: http://www.chinavasion.com/index.php/cName/electronic-gadgets/

Are you ready for the latest gadgets and gizmos expo?

Posted by on Saturday, 17 October, 2009

Europe's biggest and most heard of technology/electronics expo is upon us. The expo is well known for making big announcements to the technology world and I bet that this year will be no different from the last. This could be anything from surveillance equipment to new computer game consoles – The expo literally has it all! This year the show will be in Berlin, Germany and there are rumours of Phillips, Sony, Toshiba and Samsung to be there making some big revelations from new TVs to Blu-Ray players and walkmans.

Showcasing technology is one thing but the IFA also goes out of it's way to showcase the latest eco-friendly software, hardware and gadgets too. You will be able to see prototype products being tested and previews of the latest gadgets to hand. You will be priveledged to see some other smaller companies showcasing their latest technology. You could get to see anything from new night vision technology to the latest gadgets to improve on audio surveillance. The event starts on Friday 4th September so hurry up and get a ticket if you are interested in attending.

In 2008 the expo proved to be a massive success with the spectacle being around the latest Samsung Jet phone which was released a little earlier this year. It was designed to rival the iphone and I think it has real potential. As the internet and television are so closely linked in with eachother you will definetly see some crazy gadgets linked in with the latest 3G technology. This year we have just seen the release of the 3G iphone which has completely blown people away with its endless capabilities on the net.

So, it would be worth it to keep an eye on the expo this year as there un-doubtedly going to be some awesome gadgets and gizmos out there for everyone!


One crime in every 1000 cameras

Posted by on Saturday, 17 October, 2009

New research has shown that only one crime per year will be solved with the help of computer surveillance. Since the release of this information the public are in uproar over the excessive use of surveillance equipment in and around almost every city.

A local Chief Detective said officers should do more to make use of evidence captured by the cameras which are practically on almost every street corner around the country. The effectiveness of CCTV has clearly be pointed out with these statistics. CCTV cameras are not exactly the most popular subject with most of the English public. Why on earth would we require CCTV if it is not even working very well – I don’t see the logic personally in spy equipment? There is a unanamous dissapointment in the CCTV cameras around the country. How can they be this in-effective? There must be a solution. In my opinion it is only a matter of time before they have mobile phone tracking hooked up on all of us! Granted, that may be a little over the top but none the less it is natural to believe that we are living in a big brother society.

Recent research has indicated that computer video surveillance has been the most useful in preventing vehicle thefts and vandalism in car parks. To help out with this problem people have been investing money into vehicle tracking devices which radically increases the chance of getting your car if it has been stolen. It is somewhat proven that video surveillance technology is not all that useful and it creates a huge intrusion on everyday life. So what is the point? Why must we invest ridiculous amounts of money into this. So, what can we do? Why do we need these cameras in our streets anymore? Should we get rid of them all together? You would hope that something is being done to rectify this problem. I don’t think anyone was expecting that these statistics would be so low. Let’s see what happens..
