Hong-Kong (China) - Lik-Sang, one of the most popular online retailers for purchasing imported video games, announced today that it is going out of business for good, with costly lawsuits brought forth by Sony as the major factor. The dot-com retailer, which is based in Hong Kong, will no longer take new orders, and will not even fulfill orders already placed. Refunds will be issued for all outstanding orders.
At the heart of this unexpected closure are lawsuits filed from Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, as well as Sony Computer Entertainment’s global corporate division, who claimed Lik-Sang "infringed its trade marks, copyright and registered design rights" because of the unlawful sale of Asian PSPs to European customers. The High Court of London found in favor of Sony.
