Which laws exactly should I be reading up on? I'd really like to know.

I need read a lot myself.
I may have posted another link a few months ago but I cannot find it.
Basically all the national laws which are valid in the countries in which
consumers you want to sell to are resident and all the EU-directives.
One important thing is, as far as I remember, that the seller must prove
his/her identity to the buyer.

If your understanding of this law is correct, that would mean that every
single commercial website in the Europe is breaking the law... ?

Joel Shepherd said:I'm not a lawyer, but have dealt with some intricacies of e-commerce in
Europe, on the order fulfillment side of things. What is the case, is
that the identity of the seller must be stated as the customer is making
their purchase. That can be as simple as having a "This item is offered
for sale by So-and-So" blurb on the item information page. That's less
stringent than requiring _proof_ of identity, and I've never encountered
a case where proof was required. (And if there was such a case, I'm not
sure how the requirement could even be satisfied. Delivering pages over
https wouldn't be sufficient.)
Luigi Donatello Asero said:So, suppose that this is the case and tell me why delivering over https
would not be sufficient.
Did you visit the website www.ebusinesslex.net by the way?

A certificate is shown which contains information which says that a certain
website is verified.
Joel Shepherd said:Certificates can be fraudulent, and in fact there have been cases of
this, including one that targeted Microsoft.
Luigi said:May-be that there have been such cases.
But would you trust more a site with a certificate or one with any
certificate at all?
I trust more a site with a certificate.
