So, your printer is in Mexico? Who's doing the work for you?
"Hecho en Mexico" does mean "made in Mexico" in Spanish, after all...
I understand the confusion.
The name of the deck is "Hecho en Mexico".
I know, I know, it was made in the U.S. And probably printed in Taiwan or wherever legends is if I go with them. And that may cause confusion
But the heart and idea behind it is Mexican inspired. The designer and I are also both Mexican.
And him and I believe that's just a beautiful name, being in Spanish too.
We'll be making it very clear that hecho in Mexico is the name, not the place it was made.
I'd dodge that name like a wet, sloppy drunk dressed in puke-stained rags. Seriously. You could run into some serious issues with something like that. You wouldn't want your decks stopped at the port by US Customs for mislabeled country of origin.
Legends PCC is headquartered in Hong Kong. They mostly print out of the same plant in Taiwan used by Expert PCC, but they recently started using a second plant located in mainland China, to the best of my knowledge. There's no way on Earth Customs agents would let a product marked "Hecho en Mexico" enter the US after they were clearly manufactured in and shipped from Asia. The labels indicating they weren't made in Mexico would have to be larger than the name of the deck, I would imagine, before they'd even consider letting them in! And that doesn't even begin to cover "truth in advertising" laws... You yank the cork out of that bottle, that genie's going to whup your butt in court and you'll have a lot of pissed-off, empty-handed backers on your hands.
It would be far, far easier to call them "Mexico" or "Pride of Mexico" or almost anything with the word "Mexico" in it that doesn't say it was made in Mexico. You'll trigger a lot of ironic laughter, perhaps, but you won't run into legal issues. "Mexican Design" would be a better name! But if you insist on using "Hecho en Mexico," GET LEGAL ADVICE FIRST. I can't emphasize this enough:
GET LEGAL ADVICE FIRST!From a licensed lawyer experienced in U.S. Customs law, not anyone else! Not some web page, not some law student, not some paralegal working out of your uncle's criminal law firm. A CUSTOMS LAWYER, PERIOD. Advice from anyone else will be worth the paper it's printed on, nothing more.
