CPSIA Stay

Posted January 31st, 2009 by Seller Coordinator and filed in Accepted Items, CPSIA

The CPSC has issued a stay on the enforcement of the CPSIA.  While this is a good thing for many many manufacturers, this does not effect us directly. Again, they have stated that the rules and limits are still in place, the enforcement will not come for at least a year.  Sellers are still prohibited from selling recalled toys and children’s items and those with lead levels exceeding the limits – however, they acknowledge that this is difficult to determine without testing and certification, which they do not require resellers to perform.  Confused?  Good, you’re normal.
