Ask the seller if they have the patent for the item or if the item has a patent on it at all. That would probably be your best course of action. It is possible that the person in Japan is selling the same item ordered from China as well.Here is another question.
I've found 2 products that I believe would be great in the US. The products are selling in Japan and may be also manufactured in Japan. On Alibaba, there is another manufacturer that sells a very similar product. I am not able to tell if the Japanese company has a patent on it. I'm afraid that if I import the china manufacturered product, I may be sued by the Japanese company. Any thoughts around this? Have you ever ran into a issue similar to this?
