Bedankt Boekenwurm. De link (als je op die datum klikt) geeft de volgende tekst. Ik plak hem helemaal hierin, ongewijzigd, maar het is voor 'kleine 2e hands boekverkopers' niet eenduidig uit te leggen. Wat er staat, sorry als ik dat verkeerd begrijp, "made available on the EU market from 13 December". Dus alles wat er al staat, hoeft niet te voldoen hieraan?? Bol moet hier echt duidelijkheid over scheppen, anders stop ik met m'n mini-winkeltje... "EN E-001835/2024 Answer given by Mr Reynders on behalf of the European Commission (6.11.2024) The General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR)1, like the current General Product Safety Directive (GPSD)2, applies to second-hand products except for those products marked as to be repaired or reconditioned prior to their use. The GPSR does not apply to antiques, work of art or collectors’ items3. Second-hand products not excluded under one of the above-mentioned categories and made available on the EU market from 13 December 2024 will need to comply with the requirements laid down in the GPSR: distributors must verify that the manufacturer or the importer complied with certain specific requirements of the GPSR on traceability and labelling4 before making a product available on the EU market, and ensure that they do not jeopardise the safety of the product during storage or transport. Products that were already placed on the EU market before 13 December 2024 can remain on the market with no new requirements linked to labelling, including for resale as second hand after that date, provided that they complied with the GPSD. However, when making products available on the EU markets, distributors of cultural products, such as books, CDs, DVDs or video games will need to ensure that products placed by manufacturers or importers on the EU market as of 13 December 2024 fulfil the applicable traceability and labelling requirements, unless these products fall into one of the categories explicitly excluded from the scope of the GPSR. In accordance with Article 17 GPSR, support designed to facilitate compliance of SMEs with the GPSR will be made available. In particular, the Commission is in the process of adopting guidelines for economic operators, focussing on the needs of SMEs, including microenterprises, on how to fulfil their obligations."
