[E-trademarks] [EXT] Test purchase vendor recommendation?

[Alex Butterman]

Interested too, but for due diligence non-use investigations in preparation for an expungement or reexamination proceeding. In my case, cost-effectiveness is the primary goal.

Subject: [EXT] [E-trademarks] Test purchase vendor recommendation?

Hello colleagues,

Can someone recommend (off-list) a reliable and cost-effective investigation firm or individual investigator to handle test purchases of infringing/counterfeit goods?  The firm we've used to date has, let's say, declined in quality.  Thanks much.

Best,
Josh
