The Swedish Consumer Agency is to review a number of online stores after receiving several reports of deficiencies, the authority writes in a press release.
What the ten companies have in common is that they present themselves as Swedish stores with Swedish stock, but where the goods are in fact sent from another country.
“This is called dropshipping and is not in itself illegal. But what we see in the reports and contacts to us is that many feel misled by these stores,” says Henric Jonsson, legal adviser at Konsument Europa, which is part of the Swedish Consumer Agency, in a press release.
Other shortcomings that are pointed out concern goods that were not delivered on time, lack of contact information and the fact that the description does not match the delivered products.
