They've been in business for a few years now. Ex Google and Yahoo bods are the founders, and the parent company is valued at over $3 billion. In the summer they got a $500 million funding round, so I doubt they're going down soon, although they do spend $100 million a year on Facebook advertising, so who knows smile

They have a splendidly long list here of brands that are assumed to be counterfeit unless the retailer proves to Wish they are allowed to sell them (Breitling and B&R aren't on the list, Rolex is). 'Not our fault guv if the sellers are dishonest, we're just facilitating the transaction'.
