Piaggio USA
Piaggio USA, Inc. (iaggio is the exclusive authorized U.S. importer for Vespaand Piaggio brand products. The distribution of Vespaand Piaggioproducts occurs under country-specific agreements, and depending on the products in question, may involve products developed specifically for specific countries or regions. As a result, warranty coverage is honored only on a country-specific basis, linked to the country in which the product was first intended to be sold. For example, products that are intended for retail sale in the UK must be returned to UK authorized service centers for warranty repair Piaggio does not honor any non-US originating warranties. Therefore, purchasers of Vespaand Piaggioproducts through third party auction sites like eBay should be aware of the country of origin of any Vespaor Piaggioproduct they purchase.
Within the United States, Piaggio distributes motorscooters, accessories and merchandise only through networks of authorized retailers. The Vespa and Piaggio name and trademarks are synonymous with Italian design, top quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction. Each authorized retailer must meet Piaggio's quality requirements to become, and to remain, authorized. Piaggio strictly controls the distribution of Vespabrand products, and thus the right to use the Vespa and Piaggio names, or Piaggio's trademarks, including our distinctive logos, in connection with the sale of Vespaand Piaggioproducts is likewise restricted. Authorized Vespaand Piaggiodealers are not permitted to sell new Vespaor Piaggioproducts via on-line third-party auction sites, such as eBay. Therefore it is false and misleading for an auction seller to claim to have "New" Vespaor Piaggioproducts for sale because it suggests that the seller is authorized by Piaggio to sell the product, and it suggests that the purchaser will receive the full array of Piaggio support that customers can expect from an authorized dealer. For example, it is false and misleading to claim that the Piaggio or Vespa factory warranty will apply to products purchased through eBay Vespa and Piaggio warranties are available only to the consumer who purchases directly from an authorized retailer in a transaction that, itself, is authorized by Piaggio Dealer Agreement. The foregoing claims use the Piaggio or Vespa trademarks in a manner calculated to deceive consumers, and are strictly prohibited. In addition, Piaggio is the owner of the copyrights in all pictures, text and graphics on the Piaggio and Vespa websites. Piaggio is aware that unauthorized sellers often promote the sale of Vespaand Piaggioproducts by unlawfully copying some or all of these protected materials. Again, such copying is strictly prohibited by federal law, and will not be tolerated by Piaggio.
