707 counterfeit goods were seized. It mainly goes hugs, key chains, caps, but also ballpoint pens and sunglasses.

“The course of action is usually the same: one buys the goods through Chinese websites and then sells it through at higher prices at the flea market. It is often wrongly assumed that this is legal since the goods have passed a customs control. But it is the seller’s responsibility to ensure that things are sold in a legally way.”

The police emphasize that checks will follow in the future. The harbor parties last until Sunday.
