Demsey Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Was just watching 'Cops' in 'Nawlins. They were doing a sting on scalpers (must have been for the '02 Superbowl?) selling $500 tickets for 2K. Nice. During the operation they came across a seller selling a 'Rolex', in box, papers, receipt, in a bonafide high end jeweler's shopping /gift bag, for half price, because, the seller "Needed the money........" violation of Louisiana statute RS 14:229, illegal use of a counterfeit trademark. Only got a quick glimpse of the watch at 'processing'. Didn't even look like a Rolex. C. Whoever violates the provisions of this Section shall be fined not more than ten thousand dollars, or be imprisoned with or without hard labor for not more than five years, or both. Be careful out there. 'Used' reps make great gifts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd sell a kidney before I'd sell a replica watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfreeman420 Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 "hard labor"? LA must be one of the last states with that as an option. Glad I live in Florida.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
