[edit] Freedom of speech?

Why does prohibiting parallel imports adversely affect freedom of speech? Mission9801 10:35, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Merge with Grey Market

I suggest parallel import and grey market be merged to parallel import because parallel import is a more neutral term, grey infer association with black market. Additionally, there are no spelling discrepancy for "parallel import". --Voidvector 23:00, 28 October 2006 (UTC)


The problem with merging 'grey market' with 'parallel imports' is that the are often two different things. 'Grey market' imports of cars, for example, often involve secondhand models which may be well supported and serviced, whereas parallel imports are generally simply new products that bypass the official distributor.

[edit] Parallel imports of medication

In the EU at least, medicines from one country are often repackaged (particularly if the medicine is still under patent) for sale in another country. Perhaps there should be some mention thereof.
