Pixmania.com

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pixmania is a pan-European e-tailer of digital photographic and consumer electronic goods. It trades in 26 countries through bespoke transactional websites. It has four million customers and 1,600 employees.

In 2006, DSG international plc acquired a controlling 77% stake in its parent company, Fotovista. In addition to Pixmania.com, the business includes mypixmania.com (a site specialising in online digital photo processing), primashop.com (childcare equipment) and e-merchant.com (a B2B service site enabling brands and retailers to run e-commerce businesses across Europe). Unaudited management accounts for the year ended 31 March 2006 show sales of over Euro 450 million.

Pixmania trades in the UK as if it was a UK company - it uses a .co.uk domain, prices its goods in sterling and has a 'Pick Up Store' in London. However, it claims to operate under French law and does not accept it is bound by the British Sales of Goods Act or other UK consumer legislation.
