	TRADEMARK LAW: UNCOMMON CONTROLS OVER GREY MARKET
		The common control exception[41] to the import ban on grey market goods operates under the premise; if the domestic company and the foreign company are under common control, then the domestic company can [p98] readily stop the foreign company from importing the common good.
		[81] Although a grey market good may be genuine, domestic subsidiaries interested in maintaining the goodwill and reputation behind the mark might have implemented quality control devices not found with their foreign counterparts.
		Thus, grey market goods not subject to these quality control devices pressure the domestic trademark holder to service and warranty the grey market goods in order to protect their product’s goodwill and thereby protect the trademark holder’s investment in the mark.

	Leica FAQ - Should I risk buying "grey market" ?
		Often there is confusion here as some believe "Grey Market" means an item has been imported direct by the end user, bypassing the local distributor.
		Grey market ("Grey") cameras are those which are purchased from either a dealer who is not an authorized Leica dealer, or else from an authorized dealer who has in turn obtained the camera from a source other than the official distributor in that country.
		A typical Grey example would be to purchase from an Authorized Leica Dealer in (say) the USA, but one who themselves sourced the camera from (say) Germany bypassing Leica NJ, the authorised US distributor.

	Grey Market tractors - TractorByNet.com
		Basically, a gray market tractor is one that was manufactured and sold in another country, then later imported to the U.S.A. and may not meet all our safety or pollution standards, etc. They also may not have parts support from the manufacturer in this country.
		I agree, Brent, but think buyers of gray market tractors in this country, as well as the buyers of American made "gray market" cars in Japan, should know what they're getting, have some idea of where to obtain parts and service if required, or know that they may have to do the work themselves.
		In other words, just know what they're getting into, and in many cases the gray market machine may be the best way to go for some and not a good way to go for others.
